Hi, thank you for posting the new patches.

Here are minor comments on the HEAD_v13-0002.

(1) Suggestion for the document description

+ <para>
+ If a root partitioned table is published by any subscribed publications which
+ set publish_via_partition_root = true, changes on this root partitioned table
+ (or on its partitions) will be published using the identity and schema of this
+ root partitioned table rather than that of the individual partitions.
+ </para>
+

I suppose this sentence looks quite similar to the one in the previous paragraph and can be adjusted.

IIUC the main value of the patch is to clarify what happens when
we mix publications of different publish_via_partition_root settings for one partition hierarchy.
If this is true, how about below sentence instead of the one above ?

"
There can be a case where a subscription combines publications with
different publish_via_partition_root values for one same partition hierarchy
(e.g. subscribe two publications indicating the root partitioned table and its child table respectively).
In this case, the identity and schema of the root partitioned table take priority.
"

(2) Better documentation alignment

I think we need to wrap publish_via_partition_root by "literal" tag
in the documentation create_publication.sgml.
