If the `postgresql.version` in `/etc/zulip/zulip.conf` is out of date or wrong, upgrading to the actual current version would drop your production database without prompting. While we do document taking a Zulip backup (which includes a database backup) before running `upgrade-postgresql`[^1], not everyone does so, with possibly catastrophic consequences. Do a true end-to-end check of the version in `/etc/zulip/zulip.conf` by asking Django to query the database for its version, checking that against the configured value, and aborting if there is any disagreement.

This directory contains scripts that:
-
Generally do not require access to Django or the database (those are "management commands"), and thus are suitable to run operationally.
-
Are useful for managing a production deployment of Zulip (many are also used in a Zulip development environment, though development-only scripts live in
tools/).
