PostgreSQL 9.0 beta1 and pg_upgrade

Glen Barber wrote:

Hi,

I was looking for the latest version of pg_migrator, and found in the latest
release notes [1] that this functionality will be in contrib for 9.0. The
2010-04-30 snapshot of beta1 doesn't yet have pg_upgrade in contrib.

I've had issues with pg_migrator on FreeBSD, similar to a bug report filed in
June of last year [2], so I am eager to test this upgrade path.

Are there plans to have pg_upgrade available in the betas before 9.0 is
released?

Yes. It will be added to PG 9.0 CVS within 18 hours, and should be in
9.0 beta2. I am in the middle of adding it to CVS now.

Fantastic news. Thank you, Bruce.
