Message-ID: <E1uAO9T-000ROK-0X@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
doc: Improve explanations when a table rewrite is needed
Further improvement for commit 11bd8318602. That commit confused
identity and generated columns; fix that. Also, virtual generated
columns have since been added; add more details about that. Also some
small rewordings and reformattings to further improve clarity.
