Tom Lane	9c3f24bb46	Update release notes in preparation for RC1.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	48188e1621	Fix recently-understood problems with handling of XID freezing, particularly ... in PITR scenarios. We now WAL-log the replacement of old XIDs with FrozenTransactionId, so that such replacement is guaranteed to propagate to PITR slave databases. Also, rather than relying on hint-bit updates to be preserved, pg_clog is not truncated until all instances of an XID are known to have been replaced by FrozenTransactionId. Add new GUC variables and pg_autovacuum columns to allow management of the freezing policy, so that users can trade off the size of pg_clog against the amount of freezing work done. Revise the already-existing code that forces autovacuum of tables approaching the wraparound point to make it more bulletproof; also, revise the autovacuum logic so that anti-wraparound vacuuming is done per-table rather than per-database. initdb forced because of changes in pg_class, pg_database, and pg_autovacuum catalogs. Heikki Linnakangas, Simon Riggs, and Tom Lane.	19 years ago

Tom Lane	6fada49805	Correct documentation error: in 8.1 and 8.2, %p in archive and restore ... command strings inserts relative not absolute path of file to process. This is a side-effect of 2005-07-04 change that makes the server use relative paths in general. Noted by Bernd Helmle.	19 years ago

Tom Lane	877f08da14	Fix up timetz input so that a date is required only when the specified ... timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow GMT offsets up to 14 hours.	19 years ago
Bruce Momjian	723f716be0	Fix array operator refererence in release notes, per David Wheeler.	20 years ago
Tom Lane	022fd99668	Fix up some problems in handling of zic-style time zone names in datetime ... input routines. Remove the former "DecodePosixTimezone" function in favor of letting the zic code handle POSIX-style zone specs (see tzparse()). In particular this means that "PST+3" now means the same as "-03", whereas it used to mean "-11" --- the zone abbreviation is effectively just a noise word in this syntax. Make sure that all named and POSIX-style zone names will be parsed as a single token. Fix long-standing bogosities in printing and input of fractional-hour timezone offsets (since the tzparse() code will accept these, we'd better make 'em work). Also correct an error in the original coding of the zic-zone-name patch: in "timestamp without time zone" input, zone names are supposed to be allowed but ignored, but the coding was such that the zone changed the interpretation anyway.	20 years ago
Bruce Momjian	d58f09e6b3	Mark 8.2 release as 2006-??, not 2005-??, per observation by David ... Wheeler.	20 years ago

Tom Lane	0b35b01e7a	Arrange for timezone names to be recognized case-insensitively; for ... example SET TIME ZONE 'america/new_york' works now. This seems a good idea on general user-friendliness grounds, and is part of the solution to the timestamp-input parsing problems I noted recently.	20 years ago

Tom Lane	1314983fd3	Code review for --no-data-for-failed-tables patch. Instead of trashing ... one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID. Slightly more code but much less likely to create future maintenance problems.	20 years ago
