I just didn't want to produce a massive diff that renames the method across all of src/bin etc too, since I thought that'd be harder to commit and might have backporting consequences. If you think that's the way to go I'm very happy with that and will proceed. > > +=item $node->backup_fs_hot(backup_name) > > + > > +Create a backup with a filesystem level copy in $node->backup_dir, > > +including transaction logs.

I can bite the bullet and move the perltidy to the start of the patch series then make sure each subsequent patch is tidy'd but I'd want to be very sure you'd be OK to commit the perltidy of PostgresNode.pm otherwise I'd have to rebase messily all over again... -- Craig Ringer http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
