v.20.1New Feature

Add groupBit* functions to SimpleAggregationFunction type

Add groupBit* functions for the SimpleAggregationFunction type. #8485 (Guillaume Tassery)
Add groupBit* aggregation functions for the SimpleAggregationFunction type in ClickHouse.

Why it matters

This feature introduces new bitwise group aggregation functions to the SimpleAggregationFunction family, enabling users to perform efficient bit-level aggregation operations on grouped data. It enhances analytical capabilities by supporting bitwise computations directly within aggregation queries.

How to use it

To use these new functions, apply the groupBit* functions as aggregation functions in your queries where SimpleAggregationFunction types are supported. For example, you can use them within SELECT statements to aggregate bitwise information over grouped records.
