Bruce Momjian fdbe9facdc FAQ updates --- This is a small cosmetic patch that adds pt_BR IRC
channel to the lists of IRC channels, fixes a typo in the OID's
question, and corrects the PGCluster's project name.

Tom Lane 1314983fd3 Code review for --no-data-for-failed-tables patch. Instead of trashing
one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing
ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID.  Slightly more code but
much less likely to create future maintenance problems.

Tom Lane 24e9752863 Revise psql pattern-matching switches as per discussion. The rule is now
to process all inclusion switches then all exclusion switches, so that the
behavior is independent of switch ordering.
Use of -T does not cause non-table objects to be suppressed.  And
the patterns are now interpreted the same way psql's \d commands do it,
rather than as pure regex commands; this allows for example -t schema.tab
to do what it should have been doing all along.  Re-enable the --blobs
switch to do something useful, ie, add back blobs into a dump they were
otherwise suppressed from.

Tom Lane 77d2b1b625 Improve description of the pattern matching rules used by psql's \d
commands (and soon by pg_dump).

Peter Eisentraut 2b25e1169f The -X option in pg_dump was supposed to be a workaround for the lack of
portable long options.  But we have had portable long options for a long
time now, so this is obsolete.  Now people have added options which *only*
work with -X but not as regular long option, so I'm putting a stop to this:
-X is deprecated; it still works, but it has been removed from the
documentation, and please don't add more of them.

Tom Lane 71a6f8b85b On platforms that have getrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK), use it to ensure that
max_stack_depth is not set to an unsafe value.

This commit also provides configure-time checking for <sys/resource.h>,
and cleans up some perhaps-unportable code associated with use of that
include file and getrlimit().

Tom Lane 352a56ba68 Allow assignment to array elements not contiguous with those already
present; intervening positions are filled with nulls.  This behavior
is required by SQL99 but was not implementable before 8.2 due to lack
of support for nulls in arrays.  I have only made it work for the
one-dimensional case, which is all that SQL99 requires.  It seems quite
complex to get it right in higher dimensions, and since we never allowed
extension at all in higher dimensions, I think that must count as a
future feature addition not a bug fix.
