Hi,
Regarding the patch push, I am not a committer, but perhaps my
perspective might be interesting. When I noticed late on Friday evening
that the tests had failed, I was quite anxious about the situation,
thinking I would need to fix it right away. However, Robert committed
the fix before that.
In general, when someone commits in any project, I believe the scale of
the commit should be taken into account. In the case of postgres, if the
commit changes code in critical areas like the planner, WAL, or some
API, or involves large code changes, it’s important to be prepared to
fix any issues that may arise. However, when changes are more minor—such
as documentation, renaming something, or small refactors—committing late
on a Friday may be less of a concern.
In other words, the larger the changes or the more vulnerable the areas
of the code, the more one should be prepared for potential issues. But
how to determine this boundary in postgres, I am not sure. I am
confident that you will have a much better sense and experience of how
to handle it.
