Moderate Error in German help of pg_ctl
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.
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:t69758psql -h localhost -U postgresBuilt from patchset v2 (message #2), July 27, 2026 at 07:12 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 t69758_2 https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.gitIn a checkout you already have, add the fork once:
git remote add hackorum https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.gitthen, for this patchset and every later one:
git fetch hackorum t69758_2 && git checkout t69758_2Patchset v2 (message #2) is on t69758_2
If you check the pg_ctl --help you will get the following (in German
version):
...
Optionen für Start oder Neustart:
-c, --core-files betrifft diese Plattform nicht
-l, --log=DATEINAME Serverlog in DATEINAME schreiben (wird an
bestehende
Datei angehängt)
-o, --optons=OPTIONEN Kommandozeilenoptionen für postgres (PostgreSQL-
Serverprogramm) oder initdb
-p PFAD-ZU-POSTGRES normalerweise nicht notwendig
...
As you can see the -o, --optons is missing an "i" in the word "options".
I just discovered this by incidend.
Best greetings,
