Hi hackers, Starting with PostgreSQL 17, pg_basebackup supports incremental backups. However, the pg_stat_progress_basebackup view doesn't currently show the backup type (i.e., whether it's a full or incremental backup).
Therefore, I propose adding a backup_type column to this view. While this information is available in pg_stat_activity, the backup type is important for monitoring the progress of pg_basebackup, and including it directly in the progress view would be very useful. Thoughts? -- Best regards, Shinya Kato NTT OSS Center
