Pull request overview
Adds a new EF Core 11 “What’s New” entry under LINQ and SQL translation documenting the improved SQL generation for to-one (reference) navigation includes (join pruning in split queries and removal of redundant ORDER BY columns).
Changes:
- Adds a new “Better SQL for to-one joins” section with before/after SQL examples.
- Documents two optimizations: pruning unnecessary reference joins in split queries and omitting redundant
ORDER BYcolumns for reference navigations. - Places this new section first within the “LINQ and SQL translation” area.
