Tom Lane 2ffa740be9 Fix ruleutils to cope with conflicts from adding/dropping/renaming columns.
In commit 11e131854f, we improved the
rule/view dumping code so that it would produce valid query representations
even if some of the tables involved in a query had been renamed since the
query was parsed.  This patch extends that idea to fix problems that occur
when individual columns are renamed, or added or dropped.  As before, the
core of the fix is to assign unique new aliases when a name conflict has
been created.  This is complicated by the JOIN USING feature, which
requires the same column alias to be used in both input relations, but we
can handle that with a sufficiently complex approach to assigning aliases.

A fortiori, this patch takes care of situations where the query didn't have
unique column names to begin with, such as in a recent complaint from Bryan
Nuse.  (Because of expansion of "SELECT *", re-parsing a dumped query can
require column name uniqueness even though the original text did not.)

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
