Thanks for the new version. + This option specifies the default authentication method for local + users used in <filename>pg_hba.conf</> (<literal>host</literal> + and <literal>local</literal> lines). <command>initdb</command> will + prepopulate <filename>pg_hba.conf</filename> entries using the + specified authentication method for non-replication as well as + replication connections.
