postgres@hacking:~$ man postgres-hacking

A public workshop for hacking Postgres.

We pick real problems, inspect the code, prototype fixes, test the ugly edges, and push useful work toward -hackers and CommitFest.

Why “Postgres Hacking”?

It works as the community and site name. “Hacking Postgres” remains the session-series title used by PostgresTV. Both point to the same work.
