Hi, The backup manifest patch added a bunch of new code to src/backend/replication/basebackup.c, and while lamenting the complexity of that source file yesterday, I suddenly realized that I'd unwittingly contributed to making that problem worse, and that it would be quite easy to move the code added by that patch into a separate file. Attached is a patch to do that.
Despite the fact that we are after feature freeze, I think it would be a good idea to commit this to PG 13. It could be saved for PG 14, but that will make future back-patching substantially harder. Also, a patch that's just moving code is pretty low-risk. Thoughts? -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
