hi, all

Recently, I found the copyright info for PG11 branch still is "Portions
Copyright (c) *1996-2018*, PostgreSQL Global Development Group". Do we need
to update it?

regards, ChenBo

No, that's not our practice.

We technically only update in back branches:

./doc/src/sgml/legal.sgml in head and back branches
./COPYRIGHT in back branches
