Great. I'm checking this patch and it seems, indentation stops working if
we have a text node inside:
gitpod=# select xmlserialize(document '<xml><more>13</more></xml>' as text
indent);
xmlserialize
----------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>+
<xml> +
<more>13</more> +
</xml> +
(1 row)
gitpod=# select xmlserialize(document '<xml>text<more>13</more></xml>' as
text indent);
xmlserialize
----------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>+
<xml>text<more>13</more></xml> +
(1 row)
Worth to mention, Oracle behaves similarly -- indentation doesn't work:

But is this as expected? Shouldn't it be like this:
<xml>
text
<more>13</more>
</xml>
?
