    Hi Hackers,
    I found an issue in the comments of the
    src/backend/access/brin/brinminmaxmulti.c file.
    The header comment of function brinrangedeserialize currently reads:
    "Serialize the in-memory representation into a compact varlena value."
    which looks like a copy/paste error, where "Serialize" should be
    "Deserialize".
    I'm posting this patch to fix the comment.
    Regards,
    ji xu

      Indeed, like a copy-pasto from the initial commit (ab59610) where the 2 functions (serialize/deserialize) were added.
      The updated comment in the patch looks good to me.
      Best regards,

        Clearly a copy-pasto. I've picked up that for later, thanks for the
        report.
