OK, updated text:

2020-06-10 [c7eab0e97] Change default of password_encryption to scram-sha-256
-->
<para>
Change the default of the password_encryption server parameter
to scram-sha-256 (Peter Eisentraut)
</para>
<para>
Previously it was md5. All new passwords will be stored as SHA256
unless this server variable is changed or the password is already
md5-hashed. Also, the legacy (and undocumented) boolean-like
values which were previously synonyms of <literal>md5</literal>
are no longer accepted.
</para>
