-(This file does not appear in release tarballs.)
-
-In a release or snapshot tarball of PostgreSQL, a documentation file named
-INSTALL will appear in this directory. However, this file is not stored in
-git and so will not be present if you are using a git checkout.
-
-If you are using a git checkout, you can view the most recent installation
-instructions at:
- https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation.html
-
-Users compiling from git will also need compatible versions of Bison, Flex,
-and Perl, as discussed in the install documentation. These programs are not
-needed when using a tarball, since the files they are needed to build are
-already present in the tarball. (On Windows, however, you need Perl anyway.)
