Bruce Momjian	d9c7f63244	Add "automatically" to HOT release note description.	18 years ago
Magnus Hagander	8d363727f4	Fix very broken clean.bat for msvc install. The way we used subroutines ... in .bat simply did not work, and it called them in the wrong order, some several times, and some not at all. So this unrolls all subroutine calls. This should fix the issues with clean deleting the wrong files reported by Dave Page. While at it, add the "clean dist" option to act like "make distclean", and no longer remove the flex/bison output files by default. This shuold fix the problem reported by Pavel Golub in bug #3909.	18 years ago

Tom Lane	73d9544e27	Remove the old table of "supported platforms" in favor of a link to the ... buildfarm plus a narrative description of the CPU types and operating systems on which Postgres is likely to work. Now that we've almost completely decoupled CPU and OS considerations, the former tabular style isn't all that enlightening anyway. Perhaps more importantly, no one seems particularly interested in maintaining the table by hand when we have the buildfarm.	18 years ago

Tom Lane	5c7671425f	Fix an ancient oversight in libpq's handling of V3-protocol COPY OUT mode: ... we need to be able to swallow NOTICE messages, and potentially also ParameterStatus messages (although the latter would be a bit weird), without exiting COPY OUT state. Fix it, and adjust the protocol documentation to emphasize the need for this. Per off-list report from Alexander Galler.	18 years ago
