Is there seriously not a single person in the past three weeks who has seen this and not had the minute to spare to say "yes, this should be documented"?

    Hackers,

    Should the following paragraph in the docs be modified to point
    out minimum server version of v17 for incremental backups?

    pg_basebackup works with servers of the same or an older major
    version, down to 9.1. However, WAL streaming mode (|-X stream|)
    only works with server version 9.3 and later, and tar format
    (|--format=tar|) only works with server version 9.5 and later.

People get busy. For example, many prominent hackers spent most of the last week at various conferences. There are also other things happening less publicly that are claiming people's time.


FWIW, I think that this should probably be documented.


cheers
