• 237fa524 - Actually "build" gitlab-psql

New build https://dev.gitlab.org/gitlab/omnibus-gitlab/commit/237fa524de160088cbc65a06cda0a6194f014694/builds

The code works now but this directory should not be owned by gitlab-psql; should be root:root

@jacobvosmaer how is this different than gitlab-rails dbconsole ?

@marin rails dbconsole asks you for a password and connects as the application user. This command connects as the PG superuser.

Also, gitlab-psql is intended to function exactly like regular psql which is nice for scripting. I don't know if the same goes for 'rails dbconsole'.

Right, you want super user access to everything, not just a database. Makes sense, would be a nice addition!

Implemented with !798 (merged)
