Version 5.3.0

Aug 3, 2026

Changed

• A create is a create. CREATE FUNCTION, CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE VIEW, and CREATE TRIGGER render without OR ALTER when the plan is creating; CREATE OR ALTER renders only for the replace and recreate actions, where the plan knows the object exists. (A changed trigger plans as a replacement, rendered CREATE OR ALTER.) A create colliding with an object the plan didn’t know about now fails loudly instead of silently overwriting it.
