Second of three. MPG takes the /postgres path now that PR 2502 freed it. 9 pages moved from mpg/ to postgres/, the group root and 8 navigation entries repointed, 8 redirects added from /mpg*, and 31 internal links repointed across 19 files. Two pre-existing /mpg redirects had their destinations retargeted. Removes the /postgres to /unmanaged-postgres redirect carried over from PR 2502, which would otherwise shadow the new index page. The 24 other /postgres/* redirects do not collide with any MPG path and stay.
The old site never listed this page in its navigation and Plausible records no visits to it in the last twelve months. The Mintlify import redirected it to the index, which was right, and at the same time added it to the sidebar, which was not. This finishes the retirement. Deletes the page, drops the sidebar entry, and adds /postgres/overview to /postgres. The existing /mpg/overview redirect already covers the old URL.
Vincent's refresh landed on main while this branch was open and added two links to /mpg/extensions. They resolve through the redirect either way, but internal links should point at the real path.

Port of the pre-Mintlify change to the MDX pages, same wording. The mpg/overview hunk is dropped because that page was retired in #2503 and now redirects to /postgres, which carries the same statement. - about/pricing: pricing depends on the storage the databases use - postgres: storage is billed on usage; v1 clusters are still billed on their provisioned storage - postgres/create-and-connect: the 10GB default is an initial volume size that grows automatically with the data

Second of three PRs for the Postgres path swap, following #2502. Managed Postgres takes the
/postgrespath now that the unmanaged pages have vacated it.What changed: 9 pages moved from
mpg/topostgres/, the navigation group root and 8 entries repointed, 8 redirects added from/mpg*, and 31 internal links repointed across 19 files. The two pre-existing/mpgredirects had their destinations retargeted.The collision from #2502 is resolved.
/postgres → /unmanaged-postgresis removed here, as promised, because it would otherwise shadow the new MPG index. The other 24/postgres/*redirects from #2502 stay: none of them collide with an MPG path, so old unmanaged URLs keep working.Left alone on purpose: the 9
source_url:frontmatter values, which are provenance, and onehttps://fly.io/docs/mpg/overview/inflyctl/cmd/fly_postgres.mdx, which is flyctl's own command help text quoted verbatim. That URL still resolves through the redirect.The duplicate overview page is retired in the second commit.
mpg/overview.mdxwas a 121 line near duplicate of the 82 line index page, same illustration and same opening heading, with three extra sections on creating, connecting and using flyctl that the dedicated pages already cover. The old site never listed it in the navigation, and Plausible records no visits to it in the last twelve months. The Mintlify import redirected it to the index, which was right, and added it to the sidebar in the same commit, which was not. So the sidebar row was an import artifact, not a decision anyone made.Credit to @alexleventer, who found the same thing independently in #2498 and had the better reason for fixing it. Mintlify still lists
docs.fly.io/mpg/overviewin the sitemap, so Google is being handed a sitemap URL that 308s. I confirmed both halves: the live sitemap has the entry, and the preview for this branch does not. The fly.io side of the same finding is superfly/landing#1261. #2498 is closed in favor of this PR, because its patch targetsmpg/overview.mdx, which does not survive the move.This PR deletes the page, drops the sidebar row, and adds
/postgres/overview → /postgres. The/mpg/overviewredirect already covered the old URL.Verified on the preview at https://fly-io-move-mpg-to-postgres.mintlify.site
73 checks, no failures. All 9
/mpg*redirects land on their new path, all 9 MPG pages and all 25 unmanaged pages return 200, the 24 carried-over/postgres/*redirects still reach/unmanaged-postgres/*, and/postgresrendersManaged Postgresrather than redirecting.
