Without --allow-group-access is automatically --no-group-access? Or you want pg_basebackup independently decide the group access irrespective of the source directory? Even if the source directory is "not group access", pg_basebackup --allow-group-access make it standby as "group access". source directory is "group access", pg_basebackup --no-group-access make it "no group access" standby directory. Default behavior of pg_basebackup is just to copy same as source directory? > Let's make sure the behavior of these options is aligned with initdb. > And write tests for each variant. > OK.
