Provide a mapping for Postgres minor versions provided by a Spilo release

Open thedatabaseme opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

maybe I just looked at the wrong place, but I wasn't able to find anything like this. When having a look into the Spilo release page here on Github, I'm not able to see directly, which minor version of Postgres will get provided (for the respective major version) with a new Spilo release.

Something like this in the release description would help in my opinion:

Major version Minor version
14 14.2
13 13.6
12 ...

Is there anything like this and I haven't looked properly?

Kind regards Philip

You can safely assume that we always use the latest minor versions.

But wouldn't it make sense anyway for having an overview which Spilo image uses which minor for history reasons? Maybe someone wants to use a specific PG version or Spilo release for any reason. And it's not much effort to provide this information is it?

I don't see any value in doing that.

https://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/:

We always recommend that all users run the latest available minor release for whatever major version is in use.
