Easiest way I found is to go here:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git
Then go to the tags section and select the tag for the release. So for
the the first item below:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commit;h=518d5492911d445b126e9d5c669a83b5cae43e50
Then click on Log and search for wal_sender_timeout. That leads you to:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commit;h=518d5492911d445b126e9d5c669a83b5cae43e50
"Ignore server-side delays when enforcing wal_sender_timeout.
Healthy clients of servers having poor I/O performance, such as
buildfarm members hamster and tern, saw unexpected timeouts. That
disagreed with documentation. This fix adds one gettimeofday() call
whenever ProcessRepliesIfAny() finds no client reply messages.
Back-patch to 9.4; the bug's symptom is rare and mild, and the code all
moved between 9.3 and 9.4.
