Beta feature

Hackorum builds and tests every patch posted to the lists, not only commitfest submissions. This is Hackorum's own CI rather than the PostgreSQL project's, and it is still under testing - please report anything that looks wrong.

won't retrysuccessCI history

This thread has been committed, so CI has stopped here. Anything below is the last result it produced.

You can run a PostgreSQL built from this patch straight from Docker, with no checkout and no build:

docker run --rm -p 5432:5432 ghcr.io/hackorum-dev/postgres-patch:t253373
psql -h localhost -U postgres

Built from patchset v1 (message #1), August 11, 2026 at 12:25 PM.

Every patchset is also pushed to a branch of our PostgreSQL fork, so you can check out the same tree CI built. Without a PostgreSQL checkout:

git clone --branch t253373_1 https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.git

In a checkout you already have, add the fork once:

git remote add hackorum https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.git

then, for this patchset and every later one:

git fetch hackorum t253373_1 && git checkout t253373_1

Patchset v1 (message #1) is on t253373_1

Hi,

I noticed that PGconn.ssl_handshake_started is a write-only field and
can be safely removed. The patch is attached.

Thanks for the patch and analysis in the commit message, the field is indeed
not used anymore and can be removed. Will fix in a bit.
