e211470b19 Change a couple of examples to say ALTER MAPPING instead of ADD MAPPING, 
per Oleg.

73d6eb2446 Change 'merge sort join', a phrase we use nowhere else, to the more 
usual 'merge join'.

1ebff9ba81 Make documentation of -W options more accurate and uniform. 2007-12-11 19:57:32 +00:00
Tom Lane
1161f1ae14 Remove the long-deprecated -u option from psql, since it does nothing very 
useful and confuses people who think it is the same as -U.  (Eventually
we might want to re-introduce it as being an alias for -U, but that should
not happen until the switch has actually not been there for a few releases.)
Likewise in pg_dump and pg_restore.  Per gripe from Robert Treat and
subsequent discussion.

better, per JD.

3bf66d6f1c Extend the format of CSV logs to include the additional information supplied 
with the logged event.  CSV logs are now a first-class citizen along plain
text logs in that they carry much of the same information.

Per complaint from depesz on bug #3799.

4192f2d85a Remove the -P options of oid2name and pgbench, as they are security 
hazards.  Instead teach these programs to prompt for a password when
necessary, just like all our other programs.
I did not bother to invent -W switches for them, since the return on
investment seems so low.

wording.

4f9bf7fc5a Fix up the PQconnectionUsedPassword mess: create a separate 
PQconnectionNeedsPassword function that tells the right thing for whether to
prompt for a password, and improve PQconnectionUsedPassword so that it checks
whether the password used by the connection was actually supplied as a
connection argument, instead of coming from environment or a password file.
Per bug report from Mark Cave-Ayland and subsequent discussion.

the former README files.  Albert Cervera i Areny

3b3251cb95 Ensure that all <sect1> and <refentry> tags have IDs. This is needed 
to ensure that the resulting webpages have predictable URLs, instead of
ever-changing numeric IDs.  The new contrib docs were the biggest
offender, but some old stuff had the problem too.  Also, rename a couple
of new contrib sgml files for consistency's sake.
 2007-12-02 22:33:20 +00:00

3f89964234 Add quote_literal(anyelement) to preserve (and, in fact, extend) a 
useful consequence of the former liberal implicit casting to text;
namely that you can feed non-string values to quote_literal() and get
unsurprising results.  Per discussion.
