OSS TanbouOverview
PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system with transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types, and functions. This GitHub repository is a mirror of the official Git repository and serves as an entry point to the source distribution and development documentation.
Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:
Combine relational data with custom types and functions
It builds on a broad subset of SQL with transactional consistency, references, complex queries, triggers, and extensible types and functions. The README directs readers to source-build instructions, versioned documentation, and official software downloads.

For long-lived systems centered on integrity and SQL
It is a candidate for systems that express business-data relationships and constraints in the database and rely on SQL queries, aggregation, and transactions. Extensible types and functions can also delay the need to add a separate specialized database.

Do not mistake the GitHub mirror for the development authority
The repository description states that pull requests are not handled on GitHub and contributions follow PostgreSQL's own patch-submission workflow. Most users will also choose a distribution for their OS or managed environment instead of building this source directly. Review release-specific compatibility, backup, and upgrade guidance in the official documentation.
