Re: To be 7.1.3 or not to be 7.1.3?

I said:

Done. A couple of the patches that I had my eye on turned out not to be
relevant to 7.1 (they were fixes in new code). So attached is the
current list of 7.1.2 -> 7.1.3 changes. Bruce, are you going to handle
the documentation updates and release branding?

* src/backend/commands/copy.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Back-patch fix to
disallow COPY TO/FROM a view (or anything else that's not a plain
relation).

2001-08-08 18:25 tgl

* src/backend/utils/init/miscinit.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Back-patch fix
to prevent infinite loop when $PGDATA is not writable.

* src/: backend/port/beos/support.c, backend/port/dynloader/beos.c,
include/port/beos.h (REL7_1_STABLE): Commit BEOS patch to 7.1.X.

2001-08-03 16:14 tgl

* src/bin/pg_dump/: pg_dump.c, pg_dump.h (REL7_1_STABLE):
Back-patch fixes for dumping user-defined types and dumping
comments on views.

2001-07-31 14:39 tgl

* src/: backend/optimizer/path/allpaths.c,
backend/optimizer/util/clauses.c, backend/utils/adt/ruleutils.c,
include/optimizer/clauses.h (REL7_1_STABLE): Fix optimizer to not
try to push WHERE clauses down into a sub-SELECT that has a
DISTINCT ON clause, per bug report from Anthony Wood. While at it,
improve the DISTINCT-ON-clause recognizer routine to not be fooled
by out- of-order DISTINCT lists. Also, back-patch earlier fix to
not push down into sub-SELECT with LIMIT.

2001-07-29 18:12 tgl

* src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Arrange for
GRANT/REVOKE on a view to be dumped at the right time, namely after
the view definition rather than before it. Bug introduced in 7.1
by changes to dump stuff in OID ordering.

* doc/src/sgml/backup.sgml (REL7_1_STABLE): Fix typo. createdb -t
--> createdb -T

2001-07-02 15:34 tgl

* src/test/regress/expected/: abstime-solaris-1947.out, abstime.out
(REL7_1_STABLE): In any case, it seems the REL7_1 branch needs the
update too...

2001-06-29 12:34 tgl

* src/backend/commands/vacuum.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Fix longstanding
error in VACUUM: sometimes would examine a buffer page after
writing/unpinning it. An actual failure is unlikely, unless the
system is tremendously short of buffers ... but a bug is a bug.

2001-06-12 21:02 tgl

* src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_exec.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Back-patch fix for
attempt to pfree a value that's not palloc'd (it's a field of a
tuple). I see Jan has already fixed this in current sources, but
7.1.* is pretty badly broken here.

2001-06-12 14:54 tgl

* src/backend/rewrite/rewriteHandler.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Repair
problem with multi-action rules in combination with any nontrivial
manipulation of rtable/jointree by planner. Rewriter was
generating actions that shared rtable/jointree substructure, which
caused havoc when planner got to the later actions that it'd
already mucked up.

2001-06-06 13:18 tgl

* src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Back-patch
change to not keep WAL segments just for UNDO information.

2001-05-31 17:50 momjian

* doc/src/sgml/release.sgml (REL7_1_STABLE): Forgot SGML section
section id tag for 7.1.

2001-05-31 13:33 tgl

* src/backend/utils/adt/ri_triggers.c (REL7_1_STABLE): RI triggers
would fail for datatypes using old-style equal function, because
cached fmgr info contained reference to a shorter-lived data
structure. Also guard against possibility that fmgr_info could
fail, leaving an incomplete entry present in the hash table.

2001-05-27 21:01 ishii

* src/backend/utils/mb/conv.c (REL7_1_STABLE): Fix a message error
in utf_to_local
