2006-11-20 | Update Brazilian FAQ. | Bruce Momjian | |
Euler Taveira de Oliveira | |||
2006-11-20 | For to_char() day/month abbrevitions, mention "3 chars in English, | Bruce Momjian | |
localized lengths vary". | |||
2006-11-20 | Our MingW FAQ appears to be seriously out of date. Couple of fixes: we | Bruce Momjian | |
want to direct MSI downloads to main download site, NT4 not supported anymore, msvc build env in progress, pgsql-hackers-win32 is no more. Magnus Hagander | |||
2006-11-20 | Overhaul the "External Projects" chapter in the manual. Replace | Neil Conway | |
the variabelist with a more concise table, add a URL for each project, remove some orphaned projects, add PL/Py, and various other changes. Initial patch from Robert Treat, subsequent work by Neil Conway. | |||
2006-11-20 | Update documentation to use Statement-Based Replication rather than | Bruce Momjian | |
Query Broadcast. | |||
2006-11-17 | Clarify description of CIDR-address column of pg_hba.conf, to discourage | Tom Lane | |
people from trying notations like '10.6/16', which is accepted but does not mean what you probably think. Per example from Paul Forgey. | |||
2006-11-17 | Rename replication section "High Availability and Load Balancing". | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-17 | Data Partitioning documentation section reduced and moved to the end. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-17 | Fix a typo. | Neil Conway | |
2006-11-17 | Fixed small typo, missing 'l' in 'Cluserting' | Michael Meskes | |
2006-11-17 | Remove a bunch of antique information from the appendix in the docs | Neil Conway | |
that discusses CVS. Remove the recommendation to use cvs 1.10. Remove discussion of alleged CVSup binaries on postgresql.org, because they have not existed for several years. Remove discussion of how to build cvsup from source because the existing text is outdated, and more accurate information is available from the CVSup homepage. | |||
2006-11-17 | Use more standard terms for replication, ideas from Markus Schiltknecht. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-16 | Mention two-phase commit for having all transactions commit on all servers. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-16 | Reconfigure failover/replication doc items to be varlist entries, rather | Bruce Momjian | |
than new sections, so they appear all on the same web page. | |||
2006-11-16 | Clarify replication items, and define some terms. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-15 | Improve broadcast wording for failover/clustering documentation. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-14 | Add URL for case identifiers. | Bruce Momjian | |
< > http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-10/msg01527.php | |||
2006-11-14 | Fix xrefs for failover changes. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-14 | Update failover docs, per suggestions from Chris Browne. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-14 | Fix URL for patch hold queue. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-11-13 | Force plperl and plperlu to run in separate interpreters. Create an error | Andrew Dunstan | |
on an attempt to create the second interpreter if this is not supported by the perl installation. Per recent -hackers discussion. | |||
2006-11-12 | Do a round of copy-editing for the system catalog chapter. In particular, | Neil Conway | |
consistently capitalize the content of the "Description" column but do not include a terminating period, as is the convention elsewhere in the docs. Also, remove the "References" column from catalog that do not have any referencing columns, for the sake of brevity. Make various other SGML and grammar fixes. | |||
2006-11-12 | Minor improvements to the description of archive_timeout. | Neil Conway | |
2006-11-10 | Clean up some misleading references to %p being a full path, per Simon. | Tom Lane | |
2006-11-10 | Improve formatting of PQexecParams argument descriptions, per | Tom Lane | |
Theo Kramer. | |||
2006-11-10 | Emphasize that immutable and stable functions are not allowed to modify | Tom Lane | |
the database. xfunc.sgml was already pretty definite on the point, but it doesn't hurt to make it clear here too. | |||
2006-11-06 | Update release notes in preparation for RC1. | Tom Lane | |
2006-11-05 | Fix recently-understood problems with handling of XID freezing, particularly | Tom Lane | |
in PITR scenarios. We now WAL-log the replacement of old XIDs with FrozenTransactionId, so that such replacement is guaranteed to propagate to PITR slave databases. Also, rather than relying on hint-bit updates to be preserved, pg_clog is not truncated until all instances of an XID are known to have been replaced by FrozenTransactionId. Add new GUC variables and pg_autovacuum columns to allow management of the freezing policy, so that users can trade off the size of pg_clog against the amount of freezing work done. Revise the already-existing code that forces autovacuum of tables approaching the wraparound point to make it more bulletproof; also, revise the autovacuum logic so that anti-wraparound vacuuming is done per-table rather than per-database. initdb forced because of changes in pg_class, pg_database, and pg_autovacuum catalogs. Heikki Linnakangas, Simon Riggs, and Tom Lane. | |||
2006-11-04 | Add note about space usage of 'manual' approach to clustering, per | Tom Lane | |
suggestion from Sergey Koposov. Also some other minor editing. | |||
2006-11-04 | Correct documentation error: in 8.1 and 8.2, %p in archive and restore | Tom Lane | |
command strings inserts relative not absolute path of file to process. This is a side-effect of 2005-07-04 change that makes the server use relative paths in general. Noted by Bernd Helmle. | |||
2006-11-03 | Mention 'void' as the proper return type when there's nothing to | Tom Lane | |
return, per suggestion from Joachim Wieland. | |||
2006-10-31 | Fix misstatement about the results of using -1 with BEGIN. | Tom Lane | |
2006-10-31 | Add text to the VACUUM, REINDEX, DROP TABLESPACE and CREATE TABLESPACE | Neil Conway | |
reference pages documenting that these commands cannot be used within a transaction block. Also make some minor improvements to the psql reference page. Patch from Simon Riggs, minor editorialization by myself. | |||

2006-10-27 | Fix typo in docs. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-10-26 | Fix spelling mistake in docs. | Bruce Momjian | |
2006-10-26 | Add missing file for documentation section on failover, replication, | Bruce Momjian | |
load balancing, and clustering options. | |||
2006-10-26 | Add documentation section on failover, replication, load balancing, and | Bruce Momjian | |
clustering options. | |||
2006-10-24 | Correctino, add URL on : | Bruce Momjian | |
* Add estimated_count(*) to return an estimate of COUNT(*) > http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-11/msg00943.php | |||
2006-10-24 | Add URL for: | Bruce Momjian | |
* Speed up COUNT(*) > http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-11/msg00943.php | |||
2006-10-24 | Rewrite discussion of ORDER BY to emphasize the SQL99 expression case | Tom Lane | |
instead of the SQL92 output-column-ID case. | |||
2006-10-23 | Add some real descriptions to the multiargument aggregate functions rather | Peter Eisentraut | |
than just showing the incomprehensible formulas. | |||
2006-10-23 | Fix broken markup. | Tom Lane | |
2006-10-23 | Spellchecking and such | Peter Eisentraut | |
2006-10-23 | Fix list of environment variables for configure. Remove some variables | Peter Eisentraut | |

2006-10-21 | Update PQserverVersion() to use 8.1.X as an example, rather than 7.4 | Bruce Momjian | |
because the function didn't exist in 7.4.X. |
