Обсуждение: VMs for Reviewers Available
Folks, In order to make sure that nobody is prevented from reviewing due to not having a suitable development environment available, the PostgreSQL community is offering free virtual machines for reviewing and testing patches for this CommitFest. If you want a VM for this purpose, please email me the following at any point during the CF: 1. Your public key. 2. Which patch you intend to review/test. 3. Preference for CentOS or Ubuntu. 4. When you expect to do the review. Since these are EC2 virtual servers, they will NOT be suitable for performance testing. However, if you want to review a replication patch, we can make multiple VMs available. All VMs will be terminated at the end of the CF. VMs will come equipped with all tools required to build PostgreSQL, plus a checkout of the PostgreSQL code from the beginning of the CF. You may need to install additional requirements if you are reviewing extensions or special features with dependancies. Note that I may take a day to respond with your VM access. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

Wasn't there an EC2 image doing the rounds that Magnus created, that took care of all of that for you? http://blog.hagander.net/archives/151-Testing-PostgreSQL-patches-on-Windows-using-Amazon-EC2.html I'm not sure how current it is - was this before or after we started shipping our own WinFlex?

Just use the flex that comes with MSysGit - it works perfectly well, and you only need flex if you're building from git anyway. cheers andrew
