Defined in:
lib/pg_canary/rules/definitions/union_instead_of_union_all.rb

Overview

UNION without ALL deduplicates the combined result by sorting/hashing all rows. When the branches cannot overlap (or duplicates are acceptable), UNION ALL skips that work. Whether deduplication is intended is the author's call, hence opt-in.
