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

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:t76581
psql -h localhost -U postgres

Built from patchset v1 (message #1), July 28, 2026 at 03:38 AM.

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 t76581_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 t76581_1 && git checkout t76581_1

Patchset v1 (message #1) is on t76581_1

Here is a patch to make more use of – and — in the docs,
instead of the plain ASCII "-". I think this is nicer to read in some
cases and in other cases makes the appearance consistent with the text
generated by the DocBook stylesheets (see for example mdash use in the
TOC for the SQL commands).
