I think the problem was that the way you phrased it, it sounded
optional ("an updated patch which does not include adding that test
helper in case you apply the show-tables patch first"). I think a
clear "This patch is dependent on patch Foo" would suffice.

The Postgres project in general is quite conservative and stuck in
it's ways about how things are done (which is usually a good thing
considering you trust your data to the resulting code). We're used to
dealing with larger patchsets via the mailing list - typically as long
as you're clear about any dependencies, it shouldn't be a problem.
Some of us use tools like PyCharms for handling patches and helping
with reviews etc. which I guess replaces most, if not all of the
GitHub functionality over plain git.
