-
-* On Ruby 2.5+, :db_type entries in the schema hashes are now deduped
-  for a slight memory savings when using many columns with the same

-
-* The schema_caching extension now freezes string values in the

-
-* The schema_caching extension now supports the :callable_default

-  after restoring the cache.
-
-* Identifier mangling rules are now respected when renaming columns on

-* When typecasting strings to other types, Sequel::Database will now
-  by default not typecast strings that are much longer than expected
-  for the underlying type. Depending on the underlying type, there
-  is a limit of either 100 or 1000 bytes on the input string.  This
-  avoids potential performance issues when trying to convert
-  arbitrary sized user input to specific types.
-
-* The respond_to? to defined? change made in 5.60.0 was reverted in
-  5.60.1 as it broke cases on Ruby < 3 where the object had an unused
-  refinement that added the method.
-
-* When typecasting strings to integer, strings such as -0xa are now
-  treated as negative hexidecimal strings, similar to how 0xa is
-  treated as a positive hexidecimal string.
-
-* Database#foreign_key_list now returns results for partitioned
-  tables on PostgreSQL 11+.
-
-* Timestamps before the date of calendar reform are now handled
-  correctly by the pg_extended_date_support extension when using
-  Ruby 3.2 preview 2+.
-

-
-* The change to not typecast strings that are too long can break

-
-    DB.check_string_typecast_bytesize = false
-
-  or by passing the check_string_typecast_bytesize: false option when
-  creating the Database instance.
-
-* Code to workaround a bug in JRuby 9.2.0.0 has been removed from the
-  pg_extended_date_support extension.  Users of the extension should

-= New Features
-
-* The pg_auto_parameterize extension for automatically using bound
-  variables when using postgres adapter with the pg driver has been
-  added back to Sequel.  This extension was originally added in Sequel
-  3.34.0, but was removed in 4.0.0 due to the many corner cases it
-  had.  Almost all of the corner cases have now been fixed, and
-  the extension is now recommended for production use.  Compared
-  to the original version in Sequel 3, the reintroduced version
-  of the extension includes the following changes:
-
-  * Handles integers used in LIMIT/ORDER
-  * Respects explicit CASTs
-  * Tries to convert column IN (int, ...) into column = ANY($) with an
-    array parameter
-  * Uses the same parameter for the same object used more than once in
-    a query
-  * Uses parameters when inserting multiple rows via Dataset#import
-  * Supports automatically parameterizing all of the
-    PostgreSQL-specific types that Sequel ships support for in pg_*
-    extensions (though some values of those types may not support
-    automatic parameterization).
-  * Supports skipping auto parameterization for specific values.
-
-  Automatic parameterization is generally slower than Sequel's default
-  behavior, since some optimizations Sequel uses by default do not
-  currently support automatic parameterization.
-
-  Applications may need changes to work correctly with the
-  pg_auto_parameterize extension, such as the addition of explicit
-  casts.  Please read the extension documentation for more details.
-
-* Integer column schema entries now include :min_value and :max_value
-  entries on most databases, indicating the minimum and maximum values
-  supported for the column.
-
-  The validation_helpers plugin now has validates_max_value and
-  validates_min_value for testing the column value is not greater
-  than the given maximum value and not less than the given minimum
-  value, respectively.
-
-  The auto_validations plugin now automatically uses the :min_value
-  and :max_value column schema entries with the new validation_helpers
-  methods to validate that the column values for integer columns are
-  in the allowed range.
-
-* A primary_key_lookup_check_values plugin has been added for
-  automatically typecasting and checking the primary key values are
-  in the allowed range (given by :min_value and :max_value column
-  schema entries) during lookup. If typecasting fails or the value
-  is outside the allowed range, the primary key lookup will return
-  nil without issuing a query (or will raise a NoMatchingRow error
-  if using with_pk!).
-
-  Note that this can change behavior in some cases if you are
-  passing filter conditions during lookup instead of passing primary
-  key values. The plugin tries to support most common filter
-  conditions, but there are still cases that will break.
-
-* Sequel now supports shard-specific :after_connect and :connect_sqls
-  Database options, allowing you to customize behavior for specific
-  shards:
-
-    DB = Sequel.connect('url', servers: {
-        :shard1 => {host: '...', after_connect: proc{|conn|}},
-        :shard2 => {host: '...', connect_sqls: ['...']},
-      })
-
-  Note that these shard-specific options will not be respected if you
-  are calling after_connect= or connect_sqls= on the Database's
-  connection pool.
-
-= Other Improvements
-
-* A Sequel::Postgres::IntegerOutsideBigintRange exception will now be
-  raised if trying to literalize an integer outside PostgreSQL bigint
-  range, to avoid PostgreSQL treating the integer as a numeric type
-  and not respecting indexes on the related column.
-
-  A pg_extended_integer_support extension has been added for
-  customizing the behavior when literalizing an integer outside
-  PostgreSQL bigint range, either quoting it or getting the
-  historical behavior of using it directly in the query.
-
-* Dataset#import and #multi_insert no longer use transactions when
-  they only run a single query.
-
-* Fractional seconds in timestamps are now respected in the
-  named_timezones extension.
-
-* Using hstore[] types as bound variables now works on PostgreSQL.
-
-* Using BC dates and timestamps in bound variables now works on
-  PostgreSQL.
-
-* A corner case has been fixed in eager loading where the window
-  function eager limit strategy would be used without removing the
-  row_number entries from the result.
-
-* The shared postgres adapter now caches reflection datasets, speeding
-  up Database#indexes and similar methods.
-
-* The mock postgres adapter now assumes PostgreSQL 15 instead of
-  PostgreSQL 14 by default.
-
-= Backwards Compatibility
-
-* If you are using Ruby integers outside PostgreSQL bigint range when
-  dealing with PostgreSQL numeric column values, this version may
-  not be compatible.  It is recommended you explicitly convert the
-  Ruby integers to BigDecimal objects if you are using them for
-  numeric column values.  You can also use the
-  pg_extended_integer_support extension introduced in this version.
-
-= Workaround for Older Versions
-
-* If you cannot upgrade to Sequel 5.62.0, but still want to avoid the
-  problems that come from using literal large integers on PostgreSQL,
-  you can use the following code, where DB is your Sequel::Database
-  object:
-
-    DB.extend_datasets do
-      def literal_integer(v)
-        if v > 9223372036854775807 || v < -9223372036854775808
-          raise Sequel::InvalidValue, "PostgreSQL int too large: #{v}"
-        end
-        super
-      end
-    end
-
-  This workaround should work all the way back to Sequel 3.29.0,
-  released in November 2011.

-* On Ruby 3.2, the pool_class: :timed_queue Database option can now
-  be used to use an alternative connection pool that stores
-  connections in a queue, and uses the new Queue#pop :timeout option
-  in Ruby 3.2 to implement the pool timeout.  This new connection

-
-= Other Improvements
-
-* The tactical_eager_loading plugin now works in combination with the
-  single_table_inheritance and class_table_inheritance plugins, when
-  loading an association only defined in a specific subclass.
-  Previously, eager loading would be skipped in such a case.  Now,
-  an eager load will be attempted for all instances supporting the
-  association.
-
-* The validate_associated plugin now avoids database type errors for

-  doesn't have a value for the associated key, and the current object
-  does not have a key value that can be set in the associated object,
-  validation errors in the associated object related to the associated

-  validation_helpers.  This change was not made directly to
-  validation_helpers for backwards compatibility reasons, but will

-  based on the underlying column value and not any deserialized
-  value, so that the validation matches the constraint.
-
-* On PostgreSQL, normal type name parsing is skipped for enum,
-  array, composite, range, and multirange types, ensuring that
-  such types will not be treated incorrectly based on their
-  type name.

-* An integer64 extension has been added, which treats the Integer
-  class as a generic 64-bit integer type.  Sequel's default behavior
-  for Integer is to use the integer type, which on most databases
-  is a 32-bit type.
-
-  This affects all internal use of the Integer class as a generic
-  database type, so that methods like primary_key and foreign_key
-  also default to using a 64-bit integer type when using this
-  extension.
-
-* When using PostgreSQL 10+, you can use the :identity option when
-  creating columns to create identity columns:
-
-    DB.create_table(:table){Integer :id, identity: true}
-    # CREATE TABLE "table" ("id" integer GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY)
-
-  If you want to disallow using a user provided value when inserting,
-  or updating you can use a value of :always:
-
-    DB.create_table(:table){Integer :id, identity: :always}
-    # CREATE TABLE "table" ("id" integer GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY)
-
-* Database#convert_serial_to_identity has been added on PostgreSQL 10.2+.
-  This method can convert existing serial columns to identity columns
-  in most cases, but it currently requires superuser permissions as it
-  modifies the system tables directly.
-
-* Dataset#overriding_system_value and #overriding_user_value are
-  now supported on PostgreSQL to work with identity columns.  You can
-  use #overriding_system_value to force the use of a user provided
-  value for identity columns that are GENERATED ALWAYS, and you can
-  use #overriding_user_value to ignore any user value for identity
-  columns and always use the next entry in the sequence.
-
-= Other Improvements
-
-* On PostgreSQL 10.2+, identity columns are now used instead of serial
-  columns as the default for auto incrementing primary keys:
-
-    DB.create_table(:table){primary_key :id}
-
-    # Sequel 5.7.0+ and PostgreSQL 10.2+

-    #   GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY)
-
-    # Older Sequel version or older PostgreSQL version
-    # CREATE TABLE "table" ("id" serial PRIMARY KEY)
-
-  Identity columns fix many issues that serial columns have, in
-  addition to being the SQL standard way to support auto incrementing
-  columns.
-
-* PostgreSQL identity columns are now correctly recognized and the
-  :auto_increment schema entry is now populated for them.
-
-* Dataset#with_sql_{all,each,first,single_value} now use a cached
-  dataset to avoid clobbering the current dataset's columns.
-  Previously, the clobbering of the current dataset's columns was
-  documented and the method warned against using SQL with
-  different columns.  These methods are now safe to use in such
-  cases, but will not have the same performance advantages if the
-  current dataset is not cached.
-
-* On ruby 2.1+, Sequel now uses Process::CLOCK_MONOTONIC when
-  performing elapsed time calculations so that it is not affected by
-  modifications to the system's time.
-
-* In the postgres adapter, prepared statement errors related to
-  changing types are now treated as disconnect errors. While they
-  are not technically disconnect errors, treating them as such
-  will in general reduce the total number of exceptions generated
-  from 1 per affected statement per connection to 1 per
-  connection.
-
-* In the pg_array_associations plugin, the array_type for
-  pg_array_to_many and many_to_pg_array association reflections is
-  now always the scalar type for the array (e.g. integer). Previously,
-  the array type (e.g. integer[]) was used in some cases.  This didn't
-  previously result in issues as PostgreSQL considers integer[][] the
-  same type as integer[].
-
-* In the pg_array_associations plugin, the many_to_pg_array
-  association remove_all_* method now uses the appropriate cast to
-  work for non-integer array types such as bigint[].
-
-* Database#server_version on PostgreSQL 10.1+ now works correctly
-  when the connection does not support the server_version method.
-  Now the server_version_num database setting is always used to
-  ensure consistent behavior across adapters.

-* In the jdbc/oracle adapter, temporary clobs are now manually
-  freed to prevent a memory leak, in line with the Oracle JDBC

-  using the same sequence for the column in both the existing table
-  and the new table, or that dropping the default value for the

-  locking.  The xmin system column is automatically updated whenever
-  the database row is updated.  You can load this plugin into a
-  base model and have all models that subclass from it use optimistic
-  locking, without needing any user-defined lock columns.

-= Other Improvements
-
-* set_column_allow_null is now a reversible migration method inside
-  alter_table blocks.
-
-* The use of ILIKE no longer forces the ESCAPE clause on PostgreSQL,
-  which allows the use of ILIKE ANY and other constructions.  There
-  is no need to use the ESCAPE clause with ILIKE, because the value
-  Sequel uses is PostgreSQL's default.
-
-* The xid PostgreSQL type is now recognized as an integer type in the
-  jdbc/postgresql adapter.
