Please note that you should not rely on the FS-level stats for
anything that touches the WAL segments. A rough guess about what you
could here to make sure that only the set of WAL segments you are
looking for is being copied over would be to either:
- Scan the logs produced by pg_rewind and see if the segments are
copied or not, depending on the divergence point (aka the last
checkpoint before WAL forked).
- Clean up pg_wal/ in the target node before running pg_rewind,
checking that only the segments you want are available once the
operation completes.
