    Hi,

    I’m wondering what is the syntax for detaching multiple partitions
    in 1 ALTER TABLE statement.

    I’ve tried this:


    # ALTER TABLE movement_legs DETACH PARTITION
    movement_legs_2019_06_20_11_15, DETACH PARTITION
    movement_legs_2019_06_20_11_20;
    psql: ERROR:  syntax error at or near ","
    LINE 1: ...gs DETACH PARTITION movement_legs_2019_06_20_11_15, DETACH P…


    The documentation suggests "DETACH PARTITION can be combined into a
    list of multiple alterations to be applied together”:


Docs say this" All the forms of ALTER TABLE that act on a single table, except RENAME , SET SCHEMA , ATTACH PARTITION , and DETACH PARTITION  can be combined into a list of multiple alterations to be
applied together."


Perhaps a comma would be helpful, but its clear that you can do multiple
                                                              ^not
Or I am thoroughly confused:)

detaches in one command at present.

But it sounds like a great feature.
