I picked this patch for review and started looking at the implementation
details.

Consider the below test:

1)

postgres=# create table foo (a int, b int) partition by list (a);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
a | integer | | |
b | integer | | |
Partition key: LIST (a)
Number of partitions: 0

postgres=# \d+ foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default | Storage | Stats target
| Description
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------+---------+--------------+-------------
a | integer | | | | plain |
|
b | integer | | | | plain |
|
Partition key: LIST (a)
Number of partitions: 0

In the above case, verbose as well as normal output give information
about number of partitions.

2) Add partition to the foo;

create table foo_p1 partition of foo for values in (1, 2, 3) partition by
list (b);

postgres=# \d foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
a | integer | | |
b | integer | | |
Partition key: LIST (a)
*Number of partitions: 1 (Use \d+ to list them.)*

postgres=# \d+ foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default | Storage | Stats target
| Description
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------+---------+--------------+-------------
a | integer | | | | plain |
|
b | integer | | | | plain |
|
Partition key: LIST (a)
*Partitions: foo_p1 FOR VALUES IN (1, 2, 3) has partitions*

Above verbose output for foo says, foo_p1 "has partitions". But if I do

postgres=# \d foo_p1
Table "public.foo_p1"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
a | integer | | |
b | integer | | |
Partition of: foo FOR VALUES IN (1, 2, 3)
Partition key: LIST (b)

*Number of partitions: 0*
it tell "Number of partitions: 0".

I feel like information is conflicting with each other. AFAIU, idea about
adding
"has partitions" was to let know that it's a partitioned table. So can you
directly
add the "is partitioned" in place of "has partitions"?

Did those change in the attached patch and update regression expected
output.

Also run pgindent on the patch.

Thanks,
