-- In PostgreSQL, the most straightforward query would be to run:

--   SELECT currval(pg_get_serial_sequence('Changes', 'seq'))".

-- Unfortunately, this raises the error message "currval of sequence
-- "changes_seq_seq" is not yet defined in this session" if no change
-- has been inserted before the SELECT. We thus track the sequence
-- index with a trigger.
