Tom Lane d529989149 While perusing SQL92 I realized that we are delivering the wrong SQLSTATE
error code for string-too-long errors.  It should be STRING_DATA_RIGHT_TRUNCATION
not STRING_DATA_LENGTH_MISMATCH.  The latter probably should only be
applied to cases where a string must be exactly so many bits --- there are
no cases at all where it applies to character strings, only bit strings.

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 several language
bindings, including C and Tcl.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, and Python interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL
Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance.
A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

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
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
