From ab0ae6432062ed318774981987272b4561b5616c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Gustafsson Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2024 11:38:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] doc: Specify when ssl_prefer_server_ciphers was added The ssl_prefer_server_ciphers setting is quite important from a security point of view, so simply stating that older versions doesn't have it isn't very helpful. This adds the version when the GUC was added to help readers. Backpatch to all supported versions since this setting has been around since 9.4.
