dbmig is a modern C++ application, and makes use of the SOCI database library. It is currently tested with PostgreSQL on GNU/Linux, but the code is cross-platform, and SOCI is cross-database, so support for all major operating systems and database technologies is expected with the first formal release.
dbmig's source code is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/xsco/dbmig-cpp
