# 2024 Changelog
### <a id="243"></a> ClickHouse release 24.3 LTS, 2024-03-26
#### Upgrade Notes
* The setting `allow_experimental_analyzer` is enabled by default and it switches the query analysis to a new implementation, which has better compatibility and feature completeness. The feature "analyzer" is considered beta instead of experimental. You can turn the old behavior by setting the `compatibility` to `24.2` or disabling the `allow_experimental_analyzer` setting. Watch the [video on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhrOYQpgvkk).
* ClickHouse allows arbitrary binary data in the String data type, which is typically UTF-8. Parquet/ORC/Arrow Strings only support UTF-8. That's why you can choose which Arrow's data type to use for the ClickHouse String data type - String or Binary. This is controlled by the settings, `output_format_parquet_string_as_string`, `output_format_orc_string_as_string`, `output_format_arrow_string_as_string`. While Binary would be more correct and compatible, using String by default will correspond to user expectations in most cases. Parquet/ORC/Arrow supports many compression methods, including lz4 and zstd. ClickHouse supports each and every compression method. Some inferior tools lack support for the faster `lz4` compression method, that's why we set `zstd` by default. This is controlled by the settings `output_format_parquet_compression_method`, `output_format_orc_compression_method`, and `output_format_arrow_compression_method`. We changed the default to `zstd` for Parquet and ORC, but not Arrow (it is emphasized for low-level usages). [#61817](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61817) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* In the new ClickHouse version, the functions `geoDistance`, `greatCircleDistance`, and `greatCircleAngle` will use 64-bit double precision floating point data type for internal calculations and return type if all the arguments are Float64. This closes [#58476](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/58476). In previous versions, the function always used Float32. You can switch to the old behavior by setting `geo_distance_returns_float64_on_float64_arguments` to `false` or setting `compatibility` to `24.2` or earlier. [#61848](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61848) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)). Co-authored with [Geet Patel](https://github.com/geetptl).
* The obsolete in-memory data parts have been deprecated since version 23.5 and have not been supported since version 23.10. Now the remaining code is removed. Continuation of [#55186](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/55186) and [#45409](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/45409). It is unlikely that you have used in-memory data parts because they were available only before version 23.5 and only when you enabled them manually by specifying the corresponding SETTINGS for a MergeTree table. To check if you have in-memory data parts, run the following query: `SELECT part_type, count() FROM system.parts GROUP BY part_type ORDER BY part_type`. To disable the usage of in-memory data parts, do `ALTER TABLE ... MODIFY SETTING min_bytes_for_compact_part = DEFAULT, min_rows_for_compact_part = DEFAULT`. Before upgrading from old ClickHouse releases, first check that you don't have in-memory data parts. If there are in-memory data parts, disable them first, then wait while there are no in-memory data parts and continue the upgrade. [#61127](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61127) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Changed the column name from `duration_ms` to `duration_microseconds` in the `system.zookeeper` table to reflect the reality that the duration is in the microsecond resolution. [#60774](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60774) ([Duc Canh Le](https://github.com/canhld94)).
* Reject incoming INSERT queries in case when query-level settings `async_insert` and `deduplicate_blocks_in_dependent_materialized_views` are enabled together. This behaviour is controlled by a setting `throw_if_deduplication_in_dependent_materialized_views_enabled_with_async_insert` and enabled by default. This is a continuation of https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59699 needed to unblock https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59915. [#60888](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60888) ([Nikita Mikhaylov](https://github.com/nikitamikhaylov)).
* Utility `clickhouse-copier` is moved to a separate repository on GitHub: https://github.com/ClickHouse/copier. It is no longer included in the bundle but is still available as a separate download. This closes: [#60734](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60734) This closes: [#60540](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60540) This closes: [#60250](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60250) This closes: [#52917](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/52917) This closes: [#51140](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/51140) This closes: [#47517](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/47517) This closes: [#47189](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/47189) This closes: [#46598](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/46598) This closes: [#40257](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/40257) This closes: [#36504](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/36504) This closes: [#35485](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/35485) This closes: [#33702](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/33702) This closes: [#26702](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/26702).
* To increase compatibility with MySQL, the compatibility alias `locate` now accepts arguments `(needle, haystack[, start_pos])` by default. The previous behavior `(haystack, needle, [, start_pos])` can be restored by setting `function_locate_has_mysql_compatible_argument_order = 0`. [#61092](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61092) ([Robert Schulze](https://github.com/rschu1ze)).
* Forbid `SimpleAggregateFunction` in `ORDER BY` of `MergeTree` tables (like `AggregateFunction` is forbidden, but they are forbidden because they are not comparable) by default (use `allow_suspicious_primary_key` to allow them). [#61399](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61399) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
* The `Ordinary` database engine is deprecated. You will receive a warning in clickhouse-client if your server is using it. This closes [#52229](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/52229). [#56942](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/56942) ([shabroo](https://github.com/shabroo)).
#### New Feature
* Support reading and writing backups as `tar` (in addition to `zip`). [#59535](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59535) ([josh-hildred](https://github.com/josh-hildred)).
* Implemented support for S3 Express buckets. [#59965](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59965) ([Nikita Taranov](https://github.com/nickitat)).
* Allow to attach parts from a different disk (using copy instead of hard link). [#60112](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60112) ([Unalian](https://github.com/Unalian)).
* Size-capped `Memory` tables: controlled by their settings, `min_bytes_to_keep, max_bytes_to_keep, min_rows_to_keep` and `max_rows_to_keep`. [#60612](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60612) ([Jake Bamrah](https://github.com/JakeBamrah)).
* Separate limits on number of waiting and executing queries. Added new server setting `max_waiting_queries` that limits the number of queries waiting due to `async_load_databases`. Existing limits on number of executing queries no longer count waiting queries. [#61053](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61053) ([Sergei Trifonov](https://github.com/serxa)).
* Added a table `system.keywords` which contains all the keywords from parser. Mostly needed and will be used for better fuzzing and syntax highlighting. [#51808](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/51808) ([Nikita Mikhaylov](https://github.com/nikitamikhaylov)).
* Add support for `ATTACH PARTITION ALL`. [#61107](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61107) ([Kirill Nikiforov](https://github.com/allmazz)).
* Add a new function, `getClientHTTPHeader`. This closes [#54665](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/54665). Co-authored with @lingtaolf. [#61820](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61820) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Add `generate_series` as a table function (compatibility alias for PostgreSQL to the existing `numbers` function). This function generates table with an arithmetic progression with natural numbers. [#59390](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59390) ([divanik](https://github.com/divanik)).
* A mode for `topK`/`topkWeighed` support mode, which return count of values and its error. [#54508](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/54508) ([UnamedRus](https://github.com/UnamedRus)).
* Added function `toMillisecond` which returns the millisecond component for values of type`DateTime` or `DateTime64`. [#60281](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60281) ([Shaun Struwig](https://github.com/Blargian)).
* Allow configuring HTTP redirect handlers for clickhouse-server. For example, you can make `/` redirect to the Play UI. [#60390](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60390) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
#### Performance Improvement
* Optimized function `dotProduct` to omit unnecessary and expensive memory copies. [#60928](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60928) ([Robert Schulze](https://github.com/rschu1ze)).
* 30x faster printing for 256-bit integers. [#61100](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61100) ([Raúl Marín](https://github.com/Algunenano)).
* If the table's primary key contains mostly useless columns, don't keep them in memory. This is controlled by a new setting `primary_key_ratio_of_unique_prefix_values_to_skip_suffix_columns` with the value `0.9` by default, which means: for a composite primary key, if a column changes its value for at least 0.9 of all the times, the next columns after it will be not loaded. [#60255](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60255) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Make all format names case insensitive, like Tsv, or TSV, or tsv, or even rowbinary. [#60420](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60420) ([豪肥肥](https://github.com/HowePa)). I appreciate if you will continue to write it correctly, e.g., `JSON` 😇, not `Json` 🤮, but we don't mind if you spell it as you prefer.
* Improve the performance of serialized aggregation method when involving multiple `Nullable` columns. [#55809](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/55809) ([Amos Bird](https://github.com/amosbird)).
* Lazy build JSON's output to improve performance of ALL JOIN. [#58278](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/58278) ([LiuNeng](https://github.com/liuneng1994)).
* Make HTTP/HTTPs connections with external services, such as AWS S3 reusable for all uses cases. Even when response is 3xx or 4xx. [#58845](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/58845) ([Sema Checherinda](https://github.com/CheSema)).
* Improvements to aggregate functions `argMin` / `argMax` / `any` / `anyLast` / `anyHeavy`, as well as `ORDER BY {u8/u16/u32/u64/i8/i16/u32/i64) LIMIT 1` queries. [#58640](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/58640) ([Raúl Marín](https://github.com/Algunenano)).
* Trivial optimization for column's filter. Peak memory can be reduced to 44% of the original in some cases. [#59698](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59698) ([李扬](https://github.com/taiyang-li)).
* Execute `multiIf` function in a columnar fashion when the result type's underlying type is a number. [#60384](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60384) ([李扬](https://github.com/taiyang-li)).
* Faster (almost 2x) mutexes. [#60823](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60823) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
* Drain multiple connections in parallel when a distributed query is finishing. [#60845](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60845) ([lizhuoyu5](https://github.com/lzydmxy)).
* Optimize data movement between columns of a Nullable number or a Nullable string, which improves some micro-benchmarks. [#60846](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60846) ([李扬](https://github.com/taiyang-li)).
* Operations with the filesystem cache will suffer less from the lock contention. [#61066](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61066) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Optimize array join and other JOINs by preventing a wrong compiler's optimization. Close [#61074](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/61074). [#61075](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61075) ([李扬](https://github.com/taiyang-li)).
* If a query with a syntax error contained `COLUMNS` matcher with a regular expression, the regular expression was compiled each time during the parser's backtracking, instead of being compiled once. This was a fundamental error. The compiled regexp was put to AST. But the letter A in AST means "abstract" which means it should not contain heavyweight objects. Parts of AST can be created and discarded during parsing, including a large number of backtracking. This leads to slowness on the parsing side and consequently allows DoS by a readonly user. But the main problem is that it prevents progress in fuzzers. [#61543](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61543) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Add a new analyzer pass to optimize the IN operator for a single value. [#61564](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61564) ([LiuNeng](https://github.com/liuneng1994)).
* DNSResolver shuffles set of resolved IPs which is needed to uniformly utilize multiple endpoints of AWS S3. [#60965](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60965) ([Sema Checherinda](https://github.com/CheSema)).
#### Experimental Feature
* Support parallel reading for Azure blob storage. This improves the performance of the experimental Azure object storage. [#61503](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61503) ([SmitaRKulkarni](https://github.com/SmitaRKulkarni)).
* Add asynchronous WriteBuffer for Azure blob storage similar to S3. This improves the performance of the experimental Azure object storage. [#59929](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59929) ([SmitaRKulkarni](https://github.com/SmitaRKulkarni)).
* Use managed identity for backups IO when using Azure Blob Storage. Add a setting to prevent ClickHouse from attempting to create a non-existent container, which requires permissions at the storage account level. [#61785](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61785) ([Daniel Pozo Escalona](https://github.com/danipozo)).
* Add a setting `parallel_replicas_allow_in_with_subquery = 1` which allows subqueries for IN work with parallel replicas. [#60950](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60950) ([Nikolai Kochetov](https://github.com/KochetovNicolai)).
* A change for the "zero-copy" replication: all zero copy locks related to a table have to be dropped when the table is dropped. The directory which contains these locks has to be removed also. [#57575](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/57575) ([Sema Checherinda](https://github.com/CheSema)).
#### Improvement
* Use `MergeTree` as a default table engine. [#60524](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60524) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov))
* Enable `output_format_pretty_row_numbers` by default. It is better for usability. [#61791](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61791) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* In the previous version, some numbers in Pretty formats were not pretty enough. [#61794](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61794) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* A long value in Pretty formats won't be cut if it is the single value in the resultset, such as in the result of the `SHOW CREATE TABLE` query. [#61795](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61795) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Similarly to `clickhouse-local`, `clickhouse-client` will accept the `--output-format` option as a synonym to the `--format` option. This closes [#59848](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/59848). [#61797](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61797) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* If stdout is a terminal and the output format is not specified, `clickhouse-client` and similar tools will use `PrettyCompact` by default, similarly to the interactive mode. `clickhouse-client` and `clickhouse-local` will handle command line arguments for input and output formats in a unified fashion. This closes [#61272](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/61272). [#61800](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61800) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Underscore digit groups in Pretty formats for better readability. This is controlled by a new setting, `output_format_pretty_highlight_digit_groups`. [#61802](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61802) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Add ability to override initial INSERT settings via `SYSTEM FLUSH DISTRIBUTED`. [#61832](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61832) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
* Enable processors profiling (time spent/in and out bytes for sorting, aggregation, ...) by default. [#61096](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61096) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
* Support files without format extension in Filesystem database. [#60795](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60795) ([Kruglov Pavel](https://github.com/Avogar)).
* Added `none_only_active` mode for `distributed_ddl_output_mode` setting. [#60340](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60340) ([Alexander Tokmakov](https://github.com/tavplubix)).
* The advanced dashboard has slightly better colors for multi-line graphs. [#60391](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60391) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* The Advanced dashboard now has controls always visible on scrolling. This allows you to add a new chart without scrolling up. [#60692](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60692) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* While running the `MODIFY COLUMN` query for materialized views, check the inner table's structure to ensure every column exists. [#47427](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/47427) ([sunny](https://github.com/sunny19930321)).
* String types and Enums can be used in the same context, such as: arrays, UNION queries, conditional expressions. This closes [#60726](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60726). [#60727](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60727) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Allow declaring Enums in the structure of external data for query processing (this is an immediate temporary table that you can provide for your query). [#57857](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/57857) ([Duc Canh Le](https://github.com/canhld94)).
* Consider lightweight deleted rows when selecting parts to merge, so the disk size of the resulting part will be estimated better. [#58223](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/58223) ([Zhuo Qiu](https://github.com/jewelzqiu)).
* Added comments for columns for more system tables. Continuation of https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/58356. [#59016](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59016) ([Nikita Mikhaylov](https://github.com/nikitamikhaylov)).
* Now we can use virtual columns in PREWHERE. It's worthwhile for non-const virtual columns like `_part_offset`. [#59033](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59033) ([Amos Bird](https://github.com/amosbird)). Improved overall usability of virtual columns. Now it is allowed to use virtual columns in `PREWHERE` (it's worthwhile for non-const virtual columns like `_part_offset`). Now a builtin documentation is available for virtual columns as a comment of column in `DESCRIBE` query with enabled setting `describe_include_virtual_columns`. [#60205](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60205) ([Anton Popov](https://github.com/CurtizJ)).
* Instead using a constant key, now object storage generates key for determining remove objects capability. [#59495](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59495) ([Sema Checherinda](https://github.com/CheSema)).
* Allow "local" as object storage type instead of "local_blob_storage". [#60165](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60165) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
* Parallel flush of pending INSERT blocks of Distributed engine on `DETACH`/server shutdown and `SYSTEM FLUSH DISTRIBUTED` (Parallelism will work only if you have multi-disk policy for a table (like everything in the Distributed engine right now)). [#60225](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60225) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
* Add a setting to force read-through cache for merges. [#60308](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60308) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
* An improvement for the MySQL compatibility protocol. The issue [#57598](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/57598) mentions a variant behaviour regarding transaction handling. An issued COMMIT/ROLLBACK when no transaction is active is reported as an error contrary to MySQL behaviour. [#60338](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60338) ([PapaToemmsn](https://github.com/PapaToemmsn)).
* Function `substring` now has a new alias `byteSlice`. [#60494](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60494) ([Robert Schulze](https://github.com/rschu1ze)).
* Renamed server setting `dns_cache_max_size` to `dns_cache_max_entries` to reduce ambiguity. [#60500](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60500) ([Kirill Nikiforov](https://github.com/allmazz)).
* `SHOW INDEX | INDEXES | INDICES | KEYS` no longer sorts by the primary key columns (which was unintuitive). [#60514](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60514) ([Robert Schulze](https://github.com/rschu1ze)).
* Keeper improvement: abort during startup if an invalid snapshot is detected to avoid data loss. [#60537](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60537) ([Antonio Andelic](https://github.com/antonio2368)).
* Update tzdata to 2024a. [#60768](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60768) ([Raúl Marín](https://github.com/Algunenano)).
* Keeper improvement: support `leadership_expiry_ms` in Keeper's settings. [#60806](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60806) ([Brokenice0415](https://github.com/Brokenice0415)).
* Always infer exponential numbers in JSON formats regardless of the setting `input_format_try_infer_exponent_floats`. Add setting `input_format_json_use_string_type_for_ambiguous_paths_in_named_tuples_inference_from_objects` that allows to use String type for ambiguous paths instead of an exception during named Tuples inference from JSON objects. [#60808](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60808) ([Kruglov Pavel](https://github.com/Avogar)).
* Add support for `START TRANSACTION` syntax typically used in MySQL syntax, resolving https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/discussions/60865. [#60886](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60886) ([Zach Naimon](https://github.com/ArctypeZach)).
* Add a flag for the full-sorting merge join algorithm to treat null as biggest/smallest. So the behavior can be compitable with other SQL systems, like Apache Spark. [#60896](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60896) ([loudongfeng](https://github.com/loudongfeng)).
* Support detect output format by file exctension in `clickhouse-client` and `clickhouse-local`. [#61036](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61036) ([豪肥肥](https://github.com/HowePa)).
* Update memory limit in runtime when Linux's CGroups value changed. [#61049](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61049) ([Han Fei](https://github.com/hanfei1991)).
* Add the function `toUInt128OrZero`, which was missed by mistake (the mistake is related to https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/945). The compatibility aliases `FROM_UNIXTIME` and `DATE_FORMAT` (they are not ClickHouse-native and only exist for MySQL compatibility) have been made case insensitive, as expected for SQL-compatibility aliases. [#61114](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61114) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Improvements for the access checks, allowing to revoke of unpossessed rights in case the target user doesn't have the revoking grants either. Example: `GRANT SELECT ON *.* TO user1; REVOKE SELECT ON system.* FROM user1;`. [#61115](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61115) ([pufit](https://github.com/pufit)).

* Now it's possible to specify the attribute `merge="true"` in config substitutions for subtrees `<include from_zk="/path" merge="true">`. In case this attribute specified, clickhouse will merge subtree with existing configuration, otherwise default behavior is append new content to configuration. [#61299](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61299) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
