My Journey in PostgreSQL bug fixing

Presented by Bertrand Drouvot at PGConf.dev 2025 Reporting a bug with a repro and patch for a fix can be tricky and the first attempt at a patch does not need to be perfect! In this session, I will share my experience into a few bug fixes and deep-dive (live demo) into how a repro was created, the initial attempt at a fix and the final committed patch. If you are interested in starting your own journey in contributing to PostgreSQL this session is for you! https://www.pgevents.ca/events/pgconfdev2025/schedule/session/228-my-journey-in-postgresql-bug-fixing/
