From 80dece684f863862d68ba3cc726a4bde9d2ce568 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fujii Masao Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2019 15:07:43 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] Add note about how each partition's default value is treated, into the doc. Column defaults may be specified separately for each partition. But INSERT via a partitioned table ignores those partition's default values. The former is documented, but the latter restriction not. This commit adds the note about that restriction into the document. Back-patch to v10 where partitioning was introduced.
