I note that initdb does not detect whether the data and xlog directories are the same. I think there is no point in addressing this only in pg_basebackup. If we want to forbid it, it should be done in initdb foremost. I'm not sure it's worth the trouble, but if I were to do it, I'd just stat() the two directories and compare their inodes. That seems much easier and more robust than comparing path strings. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
