a2405d5554 Get rid of initdb -t bugs by the simple expedient of getting rid of
initdb -t.  This option is obsoleted by 7.1's ability to drop and
recreate template1 during normal operation.

fdbd6ca75e Simplify definition of pg_tables and pg_views views by making use of
new separate relkind for views (per some discussion back in September).
I didn't force initdb, but rules regress test will show differences
until you do one.

2cf48ca04b Extend CREATE DATABASE to allow selection of a template database to be
cloned, rather than always cloning template1.  Modify initdb to generate
two identical databases rather than one, template0 and template1.
Connections to template0 are disallowed, so that it will always remain
in its virgin as-initdb'd state.  pg_dumpall now dumps databases with
restore commands that say CREATE DATABASE foo WITH TEMPLATE = template0.
This allows proper behavior when there is user-added data in template1.
initdb forced!

306c44eead Add -V option to backend, to show version, since --version doesn't seem
to work everywhere.  Also, on FreeBSD you need to set the optreset variable
to 1 before parsing the command line a second time with getopt().

a) mismatching backend program, by checking --version output
b) mismatching bki files, by putting a version-identifying comment atop
   those files.

335248c9b7 Support for DESTDIR make variable. This is used as in `make install
DESTDIR=/else/where' and prepends the value of DESTDIR to the full
installation paths (e.g., /else/where/usr/local/pgsql/bin). This allows
users to install the package into a location different from the one that
was configured and hard-coded into various scripts, e.g., for creating
binary packages.

DESTDIR is in many cases preferrable over `make install
prefix=/else/where' because

a) `prefix' affects the path that is hard-coded into the files, which can
lead to a `make install prefix=xxx' (as done by the regression test
driver) corrupting the files in the source tree with wrong paths.

b) it doesn't work at all if a directory was overridden to not depend on
`prefix', e.g., --sysconfdir=/etc.

(Updating the regression test driver to use DESTDIR is a separate
undertaking.)

c3e2a951b4 Toast all the system-table columns that seem to need it. It turns out
that giving pg_proc a toast table required solving the same problems
we'd have to solve for pg_class --- pg_proc is one of the relations
that gets bootstrapped in relcache.c.  Solution is to go back at the
end of initialization and read in the *real* pg_class row to replace
the phony entry created by formrdesc().  This should work as long as
there's no need to touch any toasted values during initialization,
which seems a reasonable assumption.
Although I did not add a toast-table for every single system table
with a varlena attribute, I believe that it would work to just do
ALTER TABLE pg_class CREATE TOAST TABLE.  So anyone who's really
intent on having several thousand ACL entries for a rel could do it.
NOTE: I didn't force initdb, but you must do one to see the effects
of this patch.

f0b4ae697f Backend makefile cleanup. make maintainer-clean is now completely
functional.

Handle include file installation in src/include/Makefile

genbki.sh improvements: Don't substitute anything by config.status,
instead pass in AWK and CPP through environment. Change calling
convention to support named output files, so we get to see error
messages on stderr.

Rename bootstrap template files and install them into PREFIX/share.
Update initdb to that effect and other readability improvements
in initdb.

Scrapped pg_version and changed initdb accordingly. Integrated
src/utils/version.c into src/backend/utils/init/miscinit.c. Changed all
callers.

Set version number to `7.1devel'. (Non-numeric version suffixes now allowed.)

5bb8b62983 Makefile cleanup for bin and pl subtrees. They should now support

c446509565 Second pass over run-time configuration system. Adjust priorities on some
option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering
here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this.
Removed permissions check on SHOW command.

Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the
official data model better. Adjust documentation.

Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To
facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself,
don't wait for the magic -p switch.

Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive
init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary.

Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode
0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.

85add42a57 I have large database and with this DB work more users and I very need
more restriction for fretful users. The current PG allow define only
NO-CREATE-DB and NO-CREATE-USER restriction, but for some users I need
NO-CREATE-TABLE and NO-LOCK-TABLE.

This patch add to current code NOCREATETABLE and NOLOCKTABLE feature:

CREATE USER username
    [ WITH
     [ SYSID uid ]
     [ PASSWORD 'password' ] ]
    [ CREATEDB   | NOCREATEDB ] [ CREATEUSER | NOCREATEUSER ]
->  [ CREATETABLE | NOCREATETABLE ] [ LOCKTABLE | NOLOCKTABLE ]
    ...etc.

 If CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE is not specific in CREATE USER command,
as default is set CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE (true).

 A user with NOCREATETABLE restriction can't call CREATE TABLE or
SELECT INTO commands, only create temp table is allow for him.

6a68f42648 The heralded `Grand Unified Configuration scheme' (GUC)
That means you can now set your options in either or all of $PGDATA/configuration,
some postmaster option (--enable-fsync=off), or set a SET command. The list of
options is in backend/utils/misc/guc.c, documentation will be written post haste.

pg_options is gone, so is that pq_geqo config file. Also removed were backend -K,
-Q, and -T options (no longer applicable, although -d0 does the same as -Q).

Added to configure an --enable-syslog option.

changed all callers from TPRINTF to elog(DEBUG)

1cc7e40c80 yesterday I had a problem with initdb. I set bad environment values
and initdb crashs (I set pglib path to PG 6.5.3 directory instead to
7.0 and initdb take this BKI old templates ... (initdb not check
BKI version and BKI files not has any version comments (TODO?))

 This patch add to the initdb --show option which show setting of all
initdb's values. It spare developers time if in setting is bug.
