Cygwin-Postgres - The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 7.2 - Mailing list pgsql-cygwin

I'm running under a Cygwin window, on a Windows XP operating systems, 256
MB ram, 1Ghz Intel processor, with over 4GB free disk space on my local
drive.

How do I painlessly upgrade my database from 7.2 up to 7.3?

Thanks in advance,
-Martin
