Just some notes about my attempt to upgrade to webpack 4

If you enjoyed reading this, I'm intending to do more blogging like this over here: https://cdgd.tech

This is not a complaint about Webpack or v4 in any way. This is just a record of my process trying it out so I could provide feedback to the webpack team

Hmm... I don't see any docs for 4.0 on https://webpack.js.org. I guess I'll just wing it. All I need to do is npm i -D webpack@next, right?

Upgrade PostgreSQL 9.6.5 to 10.0 using Homebrew (macOS)
After automatically updating Postgres to 10.0 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work.
The error was "The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.6, which is not compatible with this version 10.0."
Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:
# need to have both 9.6.x and latest 10.0 installed, and keep 10.0 as default
brew unlink postgresql
brew install [email protected]
brew unlink [email protected]
brew link postgresql

filemerge not opening in sourcetree
This issue was due to xcode-select developer directory pointing to /Library/Developer, which only contained the folder CommandLineTools. To this end, the error message is complaining about not the directory not being the same as Xcode.
Two tested solutions:
(Re) Install Xcode.
Point xcode-select to the Xcode Developer Directory using the following command:
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
