Possibly you're getting a little too enthusiastic about these revert requests, because I'd say it's at least a decade too late to get rid of pg_basebackup. As discussed elsewhere, I do rather hope that pg_combinebackup will eventually know how to operate on tar files as well, but right now it doesn't. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
