live in database or schema's default tablespace, as per today's discussion.
Also, remove some unused keywords from the grammar (PATH, PENDANT,
VERSION), and fix ALSO, which was added as a keyword but not added
to the keyword classification lists, thus making it worse-than-reserved.
probably should have been to begin with; this is to cover cases like
needing to recreate the per-db directory during WAL replay.
Also, fix heap_create to force pg_class.reltablespace to be zero instead
of the database's default tablespace; this makes the world safe for
CREATE DATABASE to handle all tables in the default tablespace alike,
as per previous discussion. And force pg_class.reltablespace to zero
when creating a relation without physical storage (eg, a view); this
avoids possibly having dangling references in this column after a
subsequent DROP TABLESPACE.
shift support code into heapam.c accordingly. This is in service of
soon-to-be-committed ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE code that will want to
use this same record type for both heaps and indexes.
Theoretically I should have forced initdb for this, but in practice there
is no change in xlog contents because CVS tip will never really emit this
record type anyhow...
than 'datetime BC zone', because the former is accepted by the timestamptz
input converter while the latter may not be depending on spacing. This
is not a loss of compatibility w.r.t. 7.4 and before, because until very
recently there was never a case where we'd output both zone and 'BC'.
This is required by SQL spec to avoid failures in cases like
SELECT sum(win)/sum(lose) FROM ... GROUP BY ... HAVING sum(lose) > 0;
AFAICT we have gotten this wrong since day one. Kudos to Holger Jakobs
for being the first to notice.
better SQL compliance in this area, per recent discussion. Mark related
operators as commutators where possible. (The system doesn't actually care
about commutator marking for operators not returning boolean, at the moment,
but this seems forward-thinking and besides it made it easier to verify
that we hadn't missed any.)
Also, remove interval-minus-time and interval-minus-timetz operators.
I'm not sure how these got in, but they are nonstandard and had very
obviously broken behavior. (minus is not commutative in anyone's book.)
I doubt anyone had ever used 'em, because we'd surely have gotten a bug
report about it if so.
From an idea of Bruce, the attached patch implements the function
pg_tablespace_databases(oid) RETURNS SETOF oid
which delivers as set of database oids having objects in the selected
tablespace, enabling an admin to examine only the databases affecting
the tablespace for objects instead of scanning all of them.
initdb forced
for cleaning up. It seems possible that the memory contexts SPI_finish
would try to touch are already gone; and there's no need for SPI itself
to delete them, since the containing contexts will surely be going away
anyway at transaction end.
performance front, but with feature freeze upon us I think it's time to
drive a stake in the ground and say that this will be in 7.5.

only because 14627 still contained the same node that BitWithoutLength had
just produced. Make it more transparent. Also adjust ConstCharacter
to be coded the same way for consistency.
specified in just one place and adhered to exactly, rather than just more
or less. A side effect is to increase PGSTAT_ACTIVITY_SIZE (maximum
reported query length) from 256 to nearly 1000.
aggregates, conversions, functions, operators, operator classes,
schemas, types, and tablespaces. Fold the existing implementations
of alter domain owner and alter database owner in with these.

This eliminates the assumption that a serial column's sequence will
have the same name on reload that it was given in the original database.

creation of user-defined tablespaces with names starting with 'pg_', as
per suggestion of Chris K-L. Also install admin-guide tablespace
documentation from Gavin.
should recognize 'foo.*' when the star appears in A_Indirection, not only
in ColumnRef. This allows 'SELECT something.*' to do what the user
expects when the something is an expression yielding a row.
There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules
need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about
COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is
dead, it just doesn't know it yet.
Gavin Sherry and Tom Lane.
eliminating the former hard-wired convention about their names. Allow
pg_cast entries to represent both type coercion and length coercion in
a single step --- this is represented by a function that takes an
extra typmod argument, just like a length coercion function. This
nicely merges the type and length coercion mechanisms into something
at least a little cleaner than we had before. Make use of the single-
coercion-step behavior to fix integer-to-bit coercion so that coercing
to bit(n) yields the rightmost n bits of the integer instead of the
leftmost n bits. This should fix recurrent complaints about the odd
behavior of this coercion. Clean up the documentation of the bit string
functions, and try to put it where people might actually find it.
Also, get rid of the unreliable heuristics in ruleutils.c about whether
to display nested coercion steps; instead require parse_coerce.c to
label them properly in the first place.
begin the shutdown checkpoint; there isn't anything left for them to do,
so we may as well ensure that they shut down sooner rather than later.
Per discussion.
cidr type bit, the same as network_eq does. This is needed for hash joins
and hash aggregation to work correctly on these types. Per bug report
from Michael Fuhr, 2004-04-13.
Also, improve hash function for int8 as suggested by Greg Stark.
