* Describe each contrib module in its SGML section titleAlvaro Herrera2023-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original titles only had the module name, which is not very useful when scanning the list. By adding a very brief description to each title, the table of contents becomes friendlier. Also amend the introduction in the "additional modules" appendix, using the word "Extension" more extensively. Nowadays, almost all contrib modules are extensions, so this is also helpful.

* Add bool to btree_gist documentationTomas Vondra2021-12-11
| | | | | | | | Commit 57e3c516 added bool opclass to btree_gist, but update the list of data types in docs to reflect this change. Reported-by: Pavel Luzanov Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAE2gYzyDKJBZngssR84VGZEN=Ux=V9FV23QfPgo+7-yYnKKg4g@mail.gmail.com
* Mark some contrib modules as "trusted".Tom Lane2020-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows these modules to be installed into a database without superuser privileges (assuming that the DBA or sysadmin has installed the module's files in the expected place). You only need CREATE privilege on the current database, which by default would be available to the database owner. The following modules are marked trusted: btree_gin btree_gist citext cube dict_int earthdistance fuzzystrmatch hstore hstore_plperl intarray isn jsonb_plperl lo ltree pg_trgm pgcrypto seg tablefunc tcn tsm_system_rows tsm_system_time unaccent uuid-ossp In the future we might mark some more modules trusted, but there seems to be no debate about these, and on the whole it seems wise to be conservative with use of this feature to start out with.

* Convert SGML IDs to lower casePeter Eisentraut2017-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | IDs in SGML are case insensitive, and we have accumulated a mix of upper and lower case IDs, including different variants of the same ID. In XML, these will be case sensitive, so we need to fix up those differences. Going to all lower case seems most straightforward, and the current build process already makes all anchors and lower case anyway during the SGML->XML conversion, so this doesn't create any difference in the output right now. A future XML-only build process would, however, maintain any mixed case ID spellings in the output, so that is another reason to clean this up beforehand.

* Don't use SGML empty tagsPeter Eisentraut2017-10-17
| | | | | | | | For DocBook XML compatibility, don't use SGML empty tags (</>) anymore, replace by the full tag name. Add a warning option to catch future occurrences. Alexander Lakhin, Jürgen Purtz
* Add btree_gist support for enum types.Andrew Dunstan2017-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | This will allow enums to be used in exclusion constraints. The code uses the new CallerFInfoFunctionCall infrastructure in fmgr, and the support for it added to btree_gist in commit 393bb504d7.

* Add support for EUI-64 MAC addresses as macaddr8Stephen Frost2017-03-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds in support for EUI-64 MAC addresses by adding a new data type called 'macaddr8' (using our usual convention of indicating the number of bytes stored). This was largely a copy-and-paste from the macaddr data type, with appropriate adjustments for having 8 bytes instead of 6 and adding support for converting a provided EUI-48 (6 byte format) to the EUI-64 format. Conversion from EUI-48 to EUI-64 inserts FFFE as the 4th and 5th bytes but does not perform the IPv6 modified EUI-64 action of flipping the 7th bit, but we add a function to perform that specific action for the user as it may be commonly done by users who wish to calculate their IPv6 address based on their network prefix and 48-bit MAC address. Author: Haribabu Kommi, with a good bit of rework of macaddr8_in by me.
