My job at pgEdge allows me a significant amount of time to work on pgAdmin, a project I started nearly 30 years ago. The previous blog and this followup is an update on some of the recent work I’ve been doing.
In my last post I wrote about moving pgAdmin’s build farm from Jenkins to GitHub Actions, and I promised a follow-up about
pgbuild, which is the least famous repository in the pgAdmin organisation and quietly one of the most important. If you have installed pgAdmin on Windows in the last year or so, or on macOS since the move to GitHub Actions, you ran code that came from the buildfarm.
