Hello,

while working with Google Code-In students, there is one task: "clone PostgreSQL from git repository, and build from source".

This brought up an interesting problem: the README refers to an "INSTALL" file, which is present in packages, but not in the source repo. This is very confusing for beginners, and should be avoided.

There are a couple options to fix this:

  1. Update the README, and remove the "INSTALL" reference
  2. Create a permanent INSTALL file, and possibly overwrite it during packaging
  3. Add different INSTALL files, based on the platform (Linux, BSD, Windows, Source)

Regards,
