Also, you might like this way of grabbing and applying all the patches
from an archives link and applying them:

$ cat ~/bin/fetch-all-patches.sh
#!/bin/sh
for P in ` curl -s $1 | grep "\.patch" | sed 's|^ *<a
href="|https://www.postgresql.org|;s|".*||' ` ; do
  echo $P
  curl -s -O $P
done
$ ~/bin/fetch-all-patches.sh
