The other way to check the change history is to troll the
pgsql-committers archives
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/
although certainly cvs2cl output is a lot easier to scan.

My $0.02: if you really want the latest and greatest, the nightly
snapshot tarball of the current stable branch would be the thing to
grab, rather than fooling with individual patches.
