In a release or snapshot tarball of PostgreSQL, documentation files named
|
|
|
|
INSTALL and HISTORY will appear in this directory. However, these files are
|
2010-09-22 02:43:11 +08:00
|
|
|
not stored in git and so will not be present if you are using a git checkout.
|
|
|
|
If you are using git, you can view the most recent install instructions at:
|

|

|
and the current release notes at:

Users compiling from git will also need compatible versions of Bison, Flex,
|
|
|
|
and Perl, as discussed in the install documentation. These programs are not
|
2004-03-28 14:09:08 +08:00
|
|
|
needed when using a tarball, since the files they are needed to build are
|
2010-09-22 02:43:11 +08:00
|
|
|
already present in the tarball. (On Windows, however, you need Perl anyway.)
