From: =?UTF-8?q?=C3=81lvaro=20Herrera?= Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 16:04:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH v3] Introduce ternary reloptions Introduce ternary reloption as a replacement for current `vacuum_truncate` implementation. Remove the `vacuum_truncate_set` separate flag and use TERNARY_UNSET instead. This could also be used for other options such as `vacuum_index_cleanup` and `buffering`, but lets get the scaffolding in first.
