new buildfarm client release 4.8
There is a new release of the PostgreSQL buildfarm client available, It
can be downloaded at
<https://github.com/downloads/PGBuildFarm/client-code/build-farm-4_8.tgz>
Apart from some bug fixes, changes of note include:
* A new --only-steps command line option, requested by Stephen Frost
(although not his patch)
* A new module TestUpgrade, which is enabled by default in the new
config file, to test pg_upgrade
* Report the environment that the client operates in. This will help
in debugging problems. Only values of certain white-listed
environment keys are reported for security reasons.
* A new make_jobs config parameter to run make in parallel
* A new "check" module hook (which is used by the TestUpgrade module).
Existing users will probably want to add:
modules => ['TestUpgrade'],
to their config files, and possibly also something like
make_jobs => 4,
Enjoy.
cheers

Argh! Marti Raudsepp has pointed out that the change in the sample
config file to support upgrade testing didn't make it. If you need this
(really probably only if you're setting up a new animal) the fixed
tarball is at
