a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

This note explains how to build Postgres from source and setup to debug it using LLDB on a Mac. I used this technique to research this article:
http://patshaughnessy.net/2014/10/13/following-a-select-statement-through-postgres-internals

1. Shut down existing postgres if necessary - you don’t want to mess up your existing DB or work :)

$ ps aux | grep postgres
