The PostgreSQL source code for released versions can be obtained from the download section of our website: https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/. Download the postgresql-
or version
.tar.gzpostgresql-
file you're interested in, then unpack it:version
.tar.bz2
tar xf postgresql-version
.tar.bz2
This will create a directory postgresql-
under the current directory with the PostgreSQL sources. Change into that directory for the rest of the installation procedure.version
Alternatively, you can use the Git version control system; see Section I.1 for more information.
