It's stated in the docs that date_trunc is "conceptually similar to the trunc function for numbers.".
So, trunc(1.1) = 1, trunc(1.9) = 1, and so on. But, date_trunc behaves like round function: round(1.9) = 2. Example: idel=# select date_trunc('milliseconds', '2009-01-01 12:15:00.000999+02'::timestamp with time zone); date_trunc ---------------------------- 2009-01-01 11:15:00.001+01 (1 row) fidel=# select version(); version ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PostgreSQL 8.3.7 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc-4.3.real (Ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4) 4.3.3 (1 row) Or am I again completely misreading something?
