as those for inherited columns; that is, it's no longer allowed for a child
table to not have a check constraint matching one that exists on a parent.
This satisfies the principle of least surprise (rows selected from the parent
will always appear to meet its check constraints) and eliminates some
longstanding bogosity in pg_dump, which formerly had to guess about whether
check constraints were really inherited or not.

The implementation involves adding conislocal and coninhcount columns to
pg_constraint (paralleling attislocal and attinhcount in pg_attribute)
and refactoring various ALTER TABLE actions to be more like those for
columns.

Improve logic for finding object files on OBJS lines in contrib Makefiles. If this unbreaks buildfarm mastodon, apply everywhere.

Also, clean up the code that assigned the scale into :scale variables.

began to realize that the input() function isn't used and printed warnings.

parameter. This fixes bug 4137 reported by Wojciech Strzalka, where a WAL
file is deleted too early when starting the recovery of a warm standby server.

Also add a sanity check in pg_standby so that it will refuse to delete anything
earlier than the file being restored, and improve the debug message in case
nothing is deleted.

something was wrong with that tab patch.

pg_wcsformat without changing pg_wcssize to match.  Add some comments to
try to make that clearer, and make a couple other minor editorializations.

adjust source code to be more modular.

This was already the float8 behavior.

instead of calling a bunch of individual functions.

This function can also be called directly, taking a PID as an argument, to
return only the data for a single PID.

than only 'off'.

Not clear that there's any observable bug at present from this omission,
but it seems like something to fix going forward.

to avoid the pain of manually renumbering them anytime we insert another
name in alphabetical order.  An excellent idea from Alex Hunsaker and
NikhilS' inherited-constraints patch --- whether or not the rest of that
gets in, this should.  Dunno why we never thought of it before.
