[PATCH] To remove EXTEND INDEX

От
Martijn van Oosterhout
Дата:
Hi,

As promised, here is a patch to remove all support for the (non-functional
anyway) EXTEND INDEX statement. See earlier emails for more explanations.

Note, this patch makes it as if it never existed. So, if you think some of
the code may be useful, now is the time to speak up!  :)

Since this patch conflicts with my currently pending patch for partial
indices, I put it here for review. I will submit a new patch to -patches
once the other is in.

Shouldn't this conversation be happening on the -hackers list? TIA

Actually, because it had a patch attached, it should go to patches,
right?

What some people do is split the patch text with the actual patch.  I
don't like it sometimes, but I hesistate to post big patches to hachers,
even if they require discussion.
