postgres 19 is late, a committer blames llms.
so i counted the git log, feature freeze to sep 25, 2025 vs 2026:
release branch commits: 728 -> 1,172
Reported-by lines: 273 -> 497
Backpatch-through lines: 281 -> 663
naming an llm: 0 -> 24
some say "Reported-by: Claude Code"

check it yourself on a clone: git rev-list --count --since=2026-04-08 --until=2026-09-25 REL_19_STABLE
trailer + llm counts are on master. rc1 is out since oct 12
