Improved repository description? about pg_hint_plan

[michaelpq]

I would suggest something even simpler, because we have a README that explains what this extension does:

Extension adding support for query hint plans in PostgreSQL.

@yamatattsu It happens that I don't have an access to that. Perhaps you could improve the description of this repository?

Yeah, I can improve that probably. So I'll fix that on this weekend.

Yeah, that sounds good too. 😄

Hi Michael and Justin,

Extension adding support for query hint plans in PostgreSQL

I realized "query hint plans" as Michael-san proposed seems like a typo: s/query hint plans/query hint/ ? Even if it was typo, the word "query hint" is not popular, so I'd like to propose the following: Extension adding support for optimizer hints in PostgreSQL It is good for the description because the word "optimizer hints" is used on PostgreSQL wiki like this: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/OptimizerHintsDiscussion What do you guys think about that?

Extension adding support for optimizer hints in PostgreSQL

The phrase structure sounds good. I'm unsure if "optimizer" is better than "query plan" hints though? If "optimizer" is more accurate, then this has my vote (for whatever that's worth). 😉

If the term 'optimizaer hints' is sufficiently widespread, I think it's appropriate to use it, considering that this tool doesn't always end up completely correcting plans.

Hi Justin and Horiguti,

Thanks for the comments.
Since there is the PostgreSQL wiki page related to "optimizer hints" as I mentioned above,
I believe it is a well-known term, so I'll use it in the description.

If it has a problem or something, let's consider a more suitable word and fix it again later.

Thanks,

[yamatattsu]

I'm going to close this issue because I fixed the description,

Cool, seems good. Thanks for getting it done. 😄
