Based on a recent conversation about backups I had I propose a small tweak to
the pg_basebackup documentation. Listing the user types in the reverse order
from today, putting superuser last, makes it IMO a little clearer that a
REPLICATION role is preferrable to using a superuser for running backups.
Makes sense to me. We do that in logical-replication.sgml as well as
pg_rewind.sgml (the latter outlines superuser rights last).
Seems there are other documentations having the similar description,
for example, pg_receivewal.sgml, func.sgml and high-availability.sgml.
Isn't it better to update also them at the same time?
That doe make sense. I've updated the places where I think a user configuring
the system might conceivably infer a preference from the order, but have left
the other ones as is.
Thanks for updating the patch! It looks good to me.
