  1. Small documentation enhancement for default_tablespace

    Andreas 'ads' Scherbaum <adsmail@wars-nicht.de> — 2010-11-27T20:48:05Z

    Hello,
    
    last week someone raised in a german webforum the question why 
    "default_tablespace" is not used for "CREATE DATABASE". After a brief 
    discussion on irc (thanks RhodiumToad) I added a note to the 
    documentation mentioning this point.
    
    Patch attached.
    
    
    Bye

    Personally I'd have said the description of default_tablespace was
    clear enough about this already, but I added the following somewhat
    revised text.
    
           <para>
            This variable is also not used when creating databases.
            By default, a new database inherits its tablespace setting from
            the template database it is copied from.
           </para>
