Any one suppose that these functions return the same:
make_date(-1,1,1)
to_date('-1-01-01','yyyy-mm-dd')

But make_date will give 0001-01-01 BC

And to_date will give 0002-01-01 BC

 

If you think this is right behavior I think this must be documented

Yep...

 

select to_date('1','YYYY')::text; // Year 1 AD

select to_date('0','YYYY')::text; // Year 1 BC (there is no year zero)

select to_date('-1','YYYY')::text; // Year 2 BC

 

to_date tries very hard to not error - if you need to use it make sure your data conforms to the format you specify.
