Subject: no longer allow fuzzy assignment of country
X-Git-Tag: v4.1.0~42^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.openstreetmap.org./nominatim.git/commitdiff_plain/739fe1c2c42ada346b5fe87836442ba0b2749538?ds=sidebyside;hp=-c

no longer allow fuzzy assignment of country

The fallback country boundaries already contain a sufficiently large
part of the water area, so there is no need to extend the country
assignment even more. Features outside countries should not show a
country in their address.
