<h1>Committers <i class="fa fa-users"></i></h1>
<p>
This is the current list of people with access to push to the
<a href="https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git">git repository</a>.
For technical details on how committing works, see
<a href="https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Committing_with_Git">Committing with Git</a>.
This is just a list of people who currently have access to push to git; for
information on current and previous contributors, see the contributor profiles
section of the web site.
</p>
<h2>Committers</h2>
<p>
The names are listed here in order of first commit or when added
as a committer, oldest first; this isn't intended to imply anything
about depth of contribution.

<h2>Notes on the Commit Log</h2>
<p>
Hundreds of developers have successfully contributed work to PostgreSQL
over decades, many acting as individuals, though also many representing
academic institutions and both user and vendor companies. Both the "Author"
and "Committer" fields of such patches will reflect the committer. The actual
author of a patch, if different, is generally listed in the commit message;
reviewers or others who contributed ideas or otherwise helped with the patch
may also be listed. Many patches, in the form in which they are committed,
are the work of multiple people: original author or authors, reviewer(s),
and/or committer. As a result, no simple analysis of duration or depth of
contribution over time is possible from the commit log. The project operates
a system of careful peer review and even committers have their work checked
by other committers and the community as a whole.
</p>
<h2>New Committers and Removing Committers</h2>
<p>
New committers are added approximately annually after discussions
and vote among the existing committers. Contributors to PostgreSQL
are selected to be committers based on the following loose criteria:
</p>
<ul>
<li>several years of substantial contributions to the project</li>
<li>multiple and continuing code contributions</li>
<li>responsibility for maintenance of one or more areas of the codebase</li>
<li>track record of reviewing and helping other contributors with their patches</li>
<li>high quality code contributions which require very little revision or correction for commit</li>
<li>demonstrated understanding of the process and criteria for patch acceptance</li>
</ul>
<p>
Generally, new committers are selected March or April and announced on the
<a href="/list/pgsql-hackers/">Hackers mailing list</a>.
</p>
<p>
Committers who have become inactive and have not contributed significantly
to the PostgreSQL project in several years are removed as committers. Again,
the review process for this is approximately annual.
