This batch is similar to 462fe0ff62 and addresses a variety of code
style issues, including grammar mistakes, typos, inconsistent variable
names in function declarations, and incorrect function names in comments
and documentation. These fixes have accumulated on the community
mailing lists since the commit mentioned above.
Notably, Alexander Lakhin previously submitted a patch identifying many
of the trivial typos and grammar issues that had been reported on
pgsql-hackers. His patch covered a somewhat large portion of the issues
addressed here, though not all of them.
The documentation changes only affect HEAD.
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
