From 1a4d714e18127264abf856fc6c07e056bd2f558a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Eisentraut Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2023 08:40:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] doc: Update info on information schema usage tables Commit f40c6969d0 added the information schema usage tables but added documentation that they did not fully work yet. Commit e717a9a18b then added SQL-standard function bodies, which made the information schema views fully functional, but it neglected to update the documentation. This is now done here.
