 Build date for snapshots? Folks, I'm not getting bug reports for 8.2 from inside Sun. However, I'm not sure how I can determine from the source what build day a particular snapshot instance is from -- sometimes these files get copied around a bit before being built. Is there a file somewhere that would carry a timestamp inside it?

Well, you could grep for the latest $PostgreSQL$ header line's commit date, but I kinda wonder why exactly you should need to do that. If you don't know when you pulled the snapshot you are testing, I submit you have a process problem you ought to fix. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq |

These aren't PostgreSQL test people, but folks from Java and the like testing other stuff. And they're pulling the build from ftp:/pub/dev/, not from CVS. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend |

Especially since they can't remember when they grabbed the snapshot. Seriously, though, it would be an aid to testing if we could add a tag to the version or README file or something for the pgsql-snapshot that told us build date. If there is one, I can't find it. When Marc gets done putting out fires, I'll ask him how difficult that would be. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org |

How about adding a simple: 'touch snapshotdate' .. in the root directory? Would that suffice? ---- Marc G.
