Message-ID: <E1u2wyO-003dLx-1c@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
Doc: remove long-obsolete advice about generated constraint names.
It's been twenty years since we generated constraint names that
look like "$N". So this advice about double-quoting such names
is well past its sell-by date, and now it merely seems confusing.
