Hi Hackers,
I see there is some interest in the functionality added by this patch.
I have rebased the patches in [1]. I saw a new column 'pubgencols' was
added in pg_publication in PG 18. So, I have modified v11-0001 to
RESET this as well.
I am also working on creating a patch to exclude columns in
publication as per suggestion in [2].
