2024-11-06 Today brought in a new category: filesystems. Sadly, the website did not process it well. I am working on that. It may take a few days.
2024-11-07 Commit processing is halted. I have a fix for the new category. It is making its way through the system.
UPDATE: the backend is processing the original filesystems commit now. It should take about an hour.
UPDATE: as of 20:30 UTC, the filesystems commit has been processed. Commit processing is now up to date.

Description:
PostgreSQL is a sophisticated Object-Relational DBMS, supporting almost all SQL constructs, including subselects, transactions, and user-defined types and functions. It is the most advanced open-source database available anywhere. Commercial Support is also available. The original Postgres code was the effort of many graduate students, undergraduate students, and staff programmers working under the direction of Professor Michael Stonebraker at the University of California, Berkeley. In 1995, Andrew Yu and Jolly Chen took on the task of converting the DBMS query language to SQL and created a new database system which came to known as Postgres95. Many others contributed to the porting, testing, debugging and enhancement of the Postgres95 code. As the code improved, and 1995 faded into memory, PostgreSQL was born. PostgreSQL development is presently being performed by a team of Internet developers who are now responsible for all current and future development. The development team coordinator is Marc G. Fournier (scrappy@PostgreSQL.ORG). Support is available from the PostgreSQL developer/user community through the support mailing list (questions@PostgreSQL.ORG). PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available.

Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2024-07-23
    Affects: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run
    Author: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 15 to 16.
      The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
      currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
      closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
      speedup of the upgrade.
    
      The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
      complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
    
      Upgrade instructions:
    
      First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
      If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 15, your
      files are named according to this.
    
      # service postgresql stop
      # pkg create postgresql15-server postgresql15-contrib
      # mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
      # tar xf postgresql15-server-15.7.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
      # tar xf postgresql15-contrib-15.7.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
      # pkg delete -f databases/postgresql15-server databases/postgresql15-contrib databases/postgresql15-client
    
      Now update PostgreSQL:
    
        pkg user:
        # pkg install databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
        # pkg upgrade
    
        Portmaster users:
        # portmaster databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
        # portmaster -a
    
        Portupgrade users:
        # portinstall databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
        # portupgrade -a
    
      After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
      all your databases to new version:
    
      # su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data16 -U postgres"
      # su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data15/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data16/ -U postgres "
    
      Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
    
      # service postgresql start
    
      ATTENTION:
      1) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

      Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
    
      # service postgresql start
    
      ATTENTION:
      1) The default user changed from "pgsql" to "postgres" in 11. The migration steps above now assume
         the "postgres" database user and FreeBSD user.
      2) See the updating entry 20190829 if you are updating from a release prior to 11.
      3) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

databases/postgresql*: update to latest versions

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported
versions of our database system, including 13.4, 12.8, 11.13, 10.18, and
9.6.23, as well as the third beta release of PostgreSQL 14. This release closes
one security vulnerability and fixes over 75 bugs reported over the last three
months.

Turn off parallel builds since we continue to struggle with build problems when
it is activated. [1]

Avoid chasing latest LLVM version. [2]

9.6.15, 9.5.19, and 9.4.24, as well as the third beta of PostgreSQL 12.
This release fixes two security issues in the PostgreSQL server, two
security issues found in one of the PostgreSQL Windows installers, and
over 40 bugs reported since the previous release.

Users should install these updates as soon as possible.

A Note on the PostgreSQL 12 Beta
================================

In the spirit of the open source PostgreSQL community, we strongly
encourage you to test the new features of PostgreSQL 12 in your database
systems to help us eliminate any bugs or other issues that may exist.
