Hi Hackers,

This is the first piece of file level incremental backup support, as
described on wiki page https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Incremental_backup

It is not yet complete, but I wish to share it on the list to receive
comments and suggestions.

The point of the patch is adding an option to pg_basebackup and
replication protocol BASE_BACKUP command to generate a backup_profile file.

This is difficult to review in isolation. Would have to see the whole solution to see if this makes sense.

If we ever want to make this more granular than per-file (and I think we should, because otherwise you might as well just use rsync), how would this be extended?
