High-level changes

  • TimescaleDB now builds and runs on Windows! Now in addition to using Docker, users can choose to build the extension from source and install on 64-bit Windows
  • Update functions add_dimension and set_chunk_time_interval to take INTERVAL types
  • Improved tablespace management including detaching tablespaces from hypertables and looking up tablespaces associated with a hypertable
  • Reduced memory usage for INSERTs with out-of-order data
  • Fix inserts on 32-bit architectures, in particular ARM
  • Other correctness improvements including preventing attachment of PG10 partitions to hypertables, improved handling of space dimensions with one partition, and correctly working with pg_upgrade
  • Test and build improvements making those both more robust and easier to do
