From bf4507e3afeac369c8640797fb51c6e4de308456 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> Date: Sun, 17 Feb 2002 11:50:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] I think it's important that it's actually documented that they can add primary keys after the fact! Also, we need to add regression tests for alter table / add primary key and alter table / drop constraint. These shouldn't be added until 7.3 tho methinks...
