Right. I would like to see that change. But you still need to have CF tester/the CF app remember the last master branch commit that worked before bitrot. And you have to provide an easy way to get that information. I generally don't care if that means that I have to initdb - I do that all the time. It's a small price to pay for a workflow that I know is practically guaranteed to get me a usable postgres executable on the first try, without requiring any special effort. I don't want to even think about bitrot until I'm at least 10 minutes into looking at something. -- Peter Geoghegan
