Subject: Link to "Upgrading a PostgreSQL Cluster" in Release Notes
Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2019 00:03:01 +0100
Message-ID: <54c208b9-7e2c-6211-0ba0-ffb0429cf20b@2ndquadrant.com> (raw)
Following a complaint on IRC about the dearth of information on how to
migrate to a new major version in the release notes, the attached
trivial patch was determined to be sufficient for the OP.
This patch applies to REL_12_STABLE. I don't know how far it should be
backpatched (the OP was trying to upgrade to v10), and I didn't see any
place to put it for 13 and future versions.
