postgresql/src/utils/README

The utils directory contains components that are used by multiple subsystems
in the Postgres source tree.  We don't want subsystems reaching into other
subsystems' directories and messing with the modularity of the system, so
we gather any cross-subsystem utilities here.

In particular, programs that form an interface between subsystems go here.
Add utils directory for cross-subsystem tools to keep make files from having to be sleazy and reach into other subsystems' directories. First entry in this directory is the PG_VERSION file interface, which must be used by the backend and also the pg_version program (which is used by initdb). 1996-11-11 08:51:57 -05:00			`The utils directory contains components that are used by multiple subsystems`
