Pretty much none of it, although both Alvaro and I are clearly motivated
by the same thing, namely disk space pressure on the buildfarm server.
I think his patches 1 and 3 seem like no-brainers.
I did two things in the BF client:
. prevent uploading redundant copies of the same file in meson builds
(this was a bug)
. inhibit loading postmaster log files from installcheck runs and
cross-version upgrade runs, but only if there hasn't been a failure.
