Can I combine PostgreSQL with GitHub?
In theory it works, if postgresql instance is configured to use exact same directory structure in all machines. So in practise, no. You could just use pg_dump to make backup and share it. Or last sentence make it sound like you do not know how to to deploy database changes into production (its script with all alter table etc. commands ), or you could also use "create new schema , do migration") type migrations. options are endless. That said if you want to publish your databases (with data) into github then use SQLite More on reddit.com

PostgreSQL database in repository
Usually, you don't store databases in the source control, because each installation/environment of your app is supposed to have it's own data, different from the others. You can and should store SQL scripts to create the structure of your database, such as empty tables, indexes, tables relationships, etc... You can also store scripts that insert the initial data on a newly created database (seed data), such as a default user. If you still want to store the entire database, just find a tool to export it to any text file(s): SQL script, JSON, CSV More on reddit.com

February 26, 2026 - To test this I built gitgres, about 2,000 lines of C implementing the libgit2 git_odb_backend and git_refdb_backend interfaces against Postgres through libpq, plus roughly 200 lines of PL/pgSQL for the storage functions. libgit2 handles pack negotiation, delta resolution, ref advertisement, and the transport protocol while the backend reads and writes against the two tables, and a git remote helper (git-remote-gitgres) lets you add a Postgres-backed remote to any repo and push or clone with a normal git client that has no idea it’s talking to a database.

The size thing is definitely an issue for forges, when your reasonable 500MB repo unpacks to 20 or even 50GB before you even get to the database overhead things get dicey fast, especially if it’s a public forge. ...
