Thread: ALTER INDEX documentation is incomplete

ALTER INDEX documentation is incomplete

From
PG Doc comments form

The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/sql-alterindex.html
Description:

I am trying to find out whether the syntax `ALTER INDEX name ATTACH
PARTITION index_name` accepts a schema-qualified index_name. However, there
is no further reference to the index_name variable in the rest of the page.
I believe this variable should be referenced in the Parameters section.
Thanks!

Instead of

+      Causes the possibly schema-qualified named index to become attached

I think something like

+      Causes the named index (possibly schema-qualified) to become attached

would be more readable and closer to what we write elsewhere.
