Beta/RC Releases and Development snapshots (unstable)

Beta and Release Candidate packages are built prior to the release of new major versions of PostgreSQL. They are not built continually.

Development snapshots are built from the latest source code and beta/rc versions that the developers are working on. These are 'bleeding edge' versions of PostgreSQL and should not be used in production systems as they have had little or no testing or quality control.

The latest development version of the documentation is also available online.

Source code

Beta and Release Candidate tarballs are made available alongside the release tarballs during the final phases of the development cycle of new major versions of PostgreSQL.

Source code tarballs are built automatically every night on the official PostgreSQL development server. The development snapshot is taken from the head of the git repository, and includes the new features being worked on for the next release. There are also "branch tip" snapshots built from all supported stable branches, which contains all bugfixes that are scheduled for the next release.
