Can merge these commits regarding compression into master branch? the compression is very important in some cases.

I don't understand what do you mean. What "refer" means? What "solve the compression issue" means??

[zhanghaiyang9999]

I meant it seems that the link
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/Pooh-Mucho/go-mysql-stdzlib#section-readme
provides the way to support compression.

I want to know what the relationship between go-mysql-stdzlib and go-sql-driver

I don't know. Why do you ask it here, instead of the owner of the repo?

At least, the author omits all git history. That is not good in two points: project quality and respect to the original author. So I won't recommend the project at all.
