Fixes #51745
Motivation / Background
Suppose you have a PG
tsrange
column namedmy_range
. If you create a record withmy_range: (Time.current..)
(inclusive), PG will insert the record with[my_range,]
, but behind the scenes it'll convert it to[my_range,)
, making it exclusive.The problem is when you
reload
or retrieve the record, it'll bemy_range: (Time.current...)
(exclusive).You can "force" inclusivity by using the timestamp value of
infinity
on insertion:[my_range, infinity]
And that's what this change does.
