Hi Pavel,
I'm reviewing this patch too and I'm facing some documentation issues
in patch
v20250207-0001-use-strict-rules-for-parsing-PL-pgSQL-expressions.patch
+ it doesn't to allow to detect broken code.
I'm not very good at english but I think it should be: it doesn't allow
to detect broken code.
Here I think the sentence is not complete:
+ This check is allowed only <varname>plpgsql.extra_errors</varname>.
Do you mean: This check is allowed only when
<varname>plpgsql.extra_errors</varname> is set to 'strict_expr_check'.
Please fix these to be sure of what the code is supposed to do.
Thanks
