Subject: [PATCH v9 07/11] Add pg_ls_dir_recurse to show dir recursively..
Date: Sun, 8 Mar 2020 22:52:14 -0500

..possibly there's a better place to put this, like maybe a doc-only example ?

TODO:
src/backend/catalog/system_views.sql:REVOKE EXECUTE ON FUNCTION pg_ls_dir(text) FROM public;

Need catversion bumped ?
