Обсуждение: custom system catalog table names

Hi,

How can one create a postgres build with custom system table names?
For example, instead of "pg_class", I'd like to name the table as
"foobar_class". Or instead of "pg_catalog", "foobar_catalog".

I don't care about compatiblity with pgadmin, jdbc drivers, etc. I'd
be happy just as long as I have a functional psql client.

thanks

There is no "branding" feature in Pg's code, so you'd need to go through
and change all the references to those names everywhere you care about them.

I imagine you'd have to use a psql client compiled from the same altered
codebase to have anything work.
