[OSM-dev] Field lengths in Rails port

Hi,

    looking at the migrations I find that integer database fields are
created with wildly different "limits":

For example, ID columns are created with :limit=>64 whereas e.g. the
version number has :limit=>11.

Is this all basically disregarded, and all boils down to 4-byte signed
integers, or what?

Bye
Frederik
