Given the PostgreSQL 17.1 kerfuffle and the addition of API and API guidance to the docs (discussion thread[1]), I’ve started a Google Summer of Code proposal[2] to take the example Peter G posted here and work up a solution that publishes a report and sends notifications for each push to a back branch. I put myself down as a mentor, but perhaps one of you who has thought about this problem and experimented with solutions might be a better choice, or at least co-mentor. If so, please add your name to the proposal. Oh, and of course, please make any corrections you deem fit.

Best,

David
