WAL archiving is lagging behind, we don't unnecessarily forbid streaming
the old not-yet-archived segments that are still perfectly valid. Per
suggestion from Fujii Masao.
doesn't take into account how far the WAL senders are. This way a hung
WAL sender doesn't prevent old WAL segments from being recycled/removed
in the primary, ultimately causing the disk to fill up. Instead add
standby_keep_segments setting to control how many old WAL segments are
kept in the primary. This also makes it more reliable to use streaming
replication without WAL archiving, assuming that you set
standby_keep_segments high enough.
Windows timezone name where the information in the registry is
incomplete, instead of aborting.
This fixes cases when the registry information is incomplete for
a timezone that is alphabetically before the one that is in use.
Per report from Alexander Forschner
At present, killing the startup process does not release any locks it holds,
so we must wait to stop the startup and walreceiver processes until all
read-only backends have exited. Without this patch, the startup and
walreceiver processes never exit, so the server gets permanently stuck in
a half-shutdown state.

Clean up some unnecessary differences between the way these were coded and
the way the YYYY case was coded. Update the regression test cases that
proved that it wasn't working.

Add missing completions for:

- ALTER VIEW name ALTER COLUMN
- ALTER VIEW name OWNER TO

Fix wrong completions for:

"(arguments)" has been ignored.
- ALTER ... SET SCHEMA
"SCHEMA" has been considered as a variable name.
is changed to match the hard-wired default. This avoids accumulating useless
catalog entries, and also provides a path for dropping the owning role without
using DROP OWNED BY. Per yesterday's complaint from Jaime Casanova, the
need to use DROP OWNED BY for that is less than obvious, so providing this
alternative method might save some user frustration.
be added during GRANT and can only be removed during REVOKE; and fix its
callers to not lie to it about the existing set of dependencies when
instantiating a formerly-default ACL. The previous coding accidentally failed
to malfunction so long as default ACLs contain only references to the object's
owning role, because that role is ignored by updateAclDependencies. However
this is obviously pretty fragile, as well as being an undocumented assumption.
The new coding is a few lines longer but IMO much clearer.
Those options do nothing right now, but might be wanted later, and in
any case it's confusing for the command to be interpreted as \dd if
anything is appended. Per Jaime Casanova.
The endterm attribute is mainly useful when the toolchain does not support
automatic link target text generation for a particular situation. In the
past, this was required by the man page tools for all reference page links,
but that is no longer the case, and it now actually gets in the way of
proper automatic link text generation. The only remaining use cases are
currently xrefs to refsects.
This allows us to see what mode the server is in before it starts to
perform actions that can block or hang. Otherwise server messages
may not appear until after messages that say FATAL the database
server is starting up.
