------------------------------------------------------------------

FYI, I haven't had a chance to follow this very closely, but we won't be 
merging fixes that don't work for a range of postgres versions [9.3, 9.6] 
(inclusive). We might in fact support versions as far back as 9.2. Also, we 
don't use Redshift and I hear that has different versioning, so we may just 
need to break that out into a different operator unless someone has already 
done that. 

BTW, this means that our travis builds will need to test against all of those 
postgres versions and it doens't do that currently. Also, a vacuum test case is 
sorely needed. If someone wants to take the lead on this, I'm happy to pair 
(with reviews and merging).

>             Project: Apache Airflow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: Airflow 1.7.0
>            Reporter: Rafael
>
> Dear Airflow Maintainers,
> h1. Environment
> * Airflow version: *v1.7.0*
> * Airflow components: *PostgresOperator*
> * Python Version: *Python 3.5.1*
> * Operating System: *15.4.0 Darwin*
> h1. Description of Issue
> I am trying to execute a `VACUUM` command as part of DAG with the 
> `PostgresOperator`, which fails with the following error:
> {quote}
> [2016-05-14 16:14:01,849] {__init__.py:36} INFO - Using executor 
> SequentialExecutor

> psycopg2.InternalError: VACUUM cannot run inside a transaction block
> {quote}
> I could create a small python script that performs the operation, as 
> explained in [this stackoverflow 
> entry](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1017463/postgresql-how-to-run-vacuum-from-code-outside-transaction-block).
>  However, I would like to know first if the `VACUUM` command should be 
> supported by the `PostgresOperator`.
> h1. Reproducing the Issue
> The operator can be declared as follows:
> {quote}
> conn = ('postgres_default')
> t4 = PostgresOperator(
>     task_id='vacuum',
>     postgres_conn_id=conn,
>     sql=("VACUUM public.table"),
>     dag=dag
>     )
> {quote}
