-Remove containment operators @ and ~ from contrib modules cube, hstore, intarray, and seg (Justin Pryzby)
+Remove deprecated containment operators @ and ~ for built-in geometric data types and contrib modules cube, hstore, intarray, and seg (Justin Pryzby)
-The more consistent containment operators <@ and @> have been supported since PostgreSQL 8.2 (year 2006).
+The more consistent <@ and @> have been recommended for many years.
-Remove contrib program pg_standby (Justin Pryzby)
+Return false for has_column_privilege() checks on non-existent or dropped columns (Joe Conway)
+
+
+Previously such columns returned an invalid column error.

-Remove password_encryption's support for boolean values, e.g. true (Peter Eisentraut)
+Limit the ways password_encryption can enable md5 hashing (Peter Eisentraut)
-Previous boolean values enabled md5. Now, only the md5 string does this.
+Previously on/true/yes/1 values enabled md5. Now, only the string md5 does this.

+Allow wide tuples to be always added to almost-empty heap pages (John Naylor, Floris van Nee)
+
+
+Previously tuples whose insertion would have exceeded the page's fill factor were instead added to new pages.

If server variable compute_query_id is enabled, display the hash in pg_stat_activity, EXPLAIN VERBOSE, csvlog, and optionally in log_line_prefix (Julien Rouhaud)

+A query id computed by an extension will also be displayed.

Function pg_stat_reset_replication_slot() resets slot statistics.

-Allow more than the common name (CN) to be matched for client certificate authentication (Andrew Dunstan)
+Allow the certificate's distinguished name (DN) to be matched for client certificate authentication (Andrew Dunstan)
-This allows for faster recovery on systems with many database files and is enabled via recovery_init_sync_method,
+By default, Postgres opens and fsyncs every data file at the start of crash recovery.
+This new setting, recovery_init_sync_method=syncfs, instead syncs each filesystem used by the database cluster.
+This allows for faster recovery on systems with many database files.

-When using \e in psql, if the buffer is not modified by the editor, ignore the editor contents and leave the buffer unchanged (Laurenz Albe)
+When editing the previous query or a file with psql's \e, or using \ef and \ev, ignore the contents if the editor exits without saving (Laurenz Albe)
-The \ef and \ev commands also now have this behavior. DOCS SAY BUFFER IS CLEARED.
+Previously, such edits would still execute the editor contents.

+Extension pg_stat_statements will now need to enable query hash computation to function properly.
+This can be done by enabling the server variable compute_query_id or by using an extension with a custom hash computation method.
