Tom Lane 38e9348282 Make a couple of small changes to the tuplestore API, for the benefit of the
upcoming window-functions patch.  First, tuplestore_trim is now an
exported function that must be explicitly invoked by callers at
appropriate times, rather than something that tuplestore tries to do
behind the scenes.  Second, a read pointer that is marked as allowing
backward scan no longer prevents truncation.  This means that a read pointer
marked as having BACKWARD but not REWIND capability can only safely read
backwards as far as the oldest other read pointer.  (The expected use pattern
for this involves having another read pointer that serves as the truncation
fencepost.)

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
