Assorted adjustments to prepare pg_filedump for its new life.
Add PostgreSQL Global Development Group to the copyright notices, and remove a couple of no-longer-appropriate references to Red Hat. Unfortunately I can't undo Red Hat's choice of GPL licensing, but it is what it is. Also reduce the pain of version-stamping by coalescing references to the version into one pair of macros, and removing not-especially-useful change logs. IMO the commit logs serve that purpose just as well.

pg_filedump is a utility to format PostgreSQL heap/index/control files
|

into a human-readable form. You can format/dump the files several ways,

as listed in the Invocation section, as well as dumping straight binary.

|
||||
by the content of the blocks within the file. However, to format a
|

pg_control file you must use the -c option.

|

The default is to format the entire file using the block size listed on

block 0 (heap/index files) and display block relative addresses. These

Some options may seem strange but they're there for a reason. For

example, block size. It's there because if the header of block 0 is

corrupt, you need a method of forcing a block size.

Compile/Installation:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Compile/Installation:
|
||||
|
||||
To compile pg_filedump, you will need to have a properly configured
|
||||
PostgreSQL source tree for the appropriate PostgreSQL major version.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two makefiles included in this package. Makefile is a
|
||||
standalone makefile for pg_filedump. Alter the include and src
|
||||
variables to point to the proper directories. Makefile.contrib can be
|
||||
used if the package was untarred in the contrib directory of a
|
||||
PostgreSQL build tree.
|
||||
standalone makefile for pg_filedump. Alter the PGSQL variable to point
|
||||
to the PostgreSQL source tree. Makefile.contrib can be used if this
|
||||
package was untarred in the contrib directory of a PostgreSQL build tree.
|
||||
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install (if in the contrib directory)
|
||||
|
||||
It is also possible to use Makefile.contrib without being in the contrib
|
||||
directory:
|
||||
|
||||
make -f Makefile.contrib USE_PGXS=1
|
||||
|
||||
This will not eliminate the need to have a complete source tree, though.
