# TimescaleDB Changelog
**A revised version of 0.9.0 is forthcoming soon. Please do not attempt
to update yet**
**Please note: When updating your database, you should connect using
`psql` with the `-X` flag to prevent any `.psqlrc` commands from
accidentally triggering the load of a previous DB version.**
## 0.9.0 (2018-03-05)
**High-level changes**
* Support for multiple extension versions on different databases in the
same PostgreSQL instance. This allows different databases to be updated
independently and provides for smoother updates between versions. No
more spurious errors in the log as the extension is being
updated, and new versions no longer require a restart of the database.
* Streamlined update process for smaller binary/package sizes
* Significant refactoring to simplify and improve codebase, including
improvements to error handling, security/permissions, and more
* Corrections to edge-case scenarios involving dropping schemas,
hypertables, dimensions, and more
* Correctness improvements through propagating reloptions from main
table to chunk tables and blocking `ONLY` commands that try to alter
hypertables (i.e., changes should be applied to chunks as well)
* Addition of a `migrate_data` option to `create_hypertable` to allow
non-empty tables to be turned into hypertables without separate
creation & insertion steps. Note, this option may take a while if the
original table has lots of data
* Support for `ALTER TABLE RENAME CONSTRAINT`
* Support for adjusting the number of partitions for a space dimension
* Improvements to tablespace handling
