/*
+ * When creating a product derived from PostgreSQL with changes that cause
+ * incompatibilities for loadable modules, it is recommended to change this
+ * string so that dfmgr.c can refuse to load incompatible modules with a clean
+ * error message. Typical examples that cause incompatibilities are any
+ * changes to node tags or node structures. (Note that dfmgr.c already
+ * detects common sources of incompatibilities due to major version
+ * differences and due to some changed compile-time constants. This setting
+ * is for catching anything that cannot be detected in a straightforward way.)
+ *
+ * There is no prescribed format for the string. The suggestion is to include
+ * product or company name, and optionally any internally-relevant ABI
+ * version. Example: "ACME Postgres/1.2". Note that the string will appear
+ * in a user-facing error message if an ABI mismatch is detected.
