What's up with just a single commit since 2006?
https://github.com/greenplum-db/gpdb/commits/master https://github.com/greenplum-db/gpdb/commits/master
Why include all the really old commits, while squashing the most recent 10 years of commits into a single commit (6b0e52bead)?
- tlrobinson 11y agoThe old source history is Postgres itself, the latest single commit is Greenplum. I wonder why it's based on Postgres 8.2 rather than a newer version?
- petepete 11y agoThat's probably why it was open-sourced. It'd take a huge effort to 'move' something as entrenched as Greenplum onto PostgreSQL 9.x and the fact that so many features and enhancements are missing from 8.2, it's putting off potential users.
