    • โœ‚ Remove versions of node older than 6 lts from the test matrix. pg>=8.0 may still work on older versions but it is no longer officially supported.

    • ๐Ÿ”„ Change default database when not specified to use the user config option if available. Previously process.env.USER was used.
    • ๐Ÿ”„ Change pg.Pool and pg.Query to be an es6 class.
    • ๐Ÿ‘‰ Make pg.native non enumerable.
    • notice messages are no longer instances of Error.
    • Passwords no longer show up when instances of clients or pools are logged.
