The first beta of PostgreSQL 13 is now available! This version of Postgres.app includes all currently supported versions of PostgreSQL (9.5-12) and the first beta of PostgreSQL 13.

You can use it to try PostgreSQL 13 next to the version you normally use.

  • comes with PostgreSQL 13beta1 and PostGIS 3.1.0alpha1
  • this build doesn't include wal2json because it didn't build with PostgreSQL 13
  • it also doesn't include plv8, because I didn't have enough time to build it
  • it no longer includes PL/tcl and PL/Perl because they don't seem to be available on macOS 10.15
  • it still comes with PL/Python2, because I haven't figured out how to add python 3 support

Please note that beta versions are for evaluation purposes only. You are likely to encounter bugs of varying severity.

During the course of the beta, the on-disk data format often changes, so that your data directory might not be compatible with future beta versions. In that case you will have to dump and restore your database when switching to a newer beta version.
