Tom Lane 01df147634 Allow selecting the git revision to be packaged by "make dist". Commit `619bc23a1` changed "make dist" to invoke "git archive", but hard-wired the call to specify that the HEAD revision should be packaged. Our tarball building process needs to be able to specify which git commit to package (notably, for packaging back branches). While we could make that work with some hackery to operate in detached-HEAD state, it's a lot nicer just to expose git archive's ability to specify what to package. Hence, invent a new make variable PG_GIT_REVISION. This is undocumented, but so is "make dist". Also make corresponding changes in the meson scripts. We have no near-term intention of using that for package building, but it will likely happen eventually, so stay prepared. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3552543.1713909947@sss.pgh.pa.us		1 year ago

PostgreSQL Database Management System

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings.

General documentation about this version of PostgreSQL can be found at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/. In particular, information about building PostgreSQL from the source code can be found at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation.html.
