That's a good point. In the case I referred to [1] however I wanted to manipulate more fields than pg_resetwal currently allows, e.g. catalog version - which, as Tom pointed out, is a controversial thing to do in a TAP test. Do you think pg_resetwall should be able to do more than it currently does, or merely pointing out that we already have a tool for editing pg_control file? 73s de Alex, R2AUK [1]: https://postgr.es/m/CAJ7c6TOy7fUW9MuNeOWor3cSFnQg9tgz%3DmjXHDb94GORtM_Eyg%40mail.gmail.com
