Attached is an updated patch, where I have tried to use a better
wording in all the code paths involved.
This new patch doesn't work for me on MSYS2 yet.
It fails right now in 010_pg_basebackup.pl at
my $realTsDir = TestLib::perl2host("$shorter_tempdir/tblspc1");
with chdir: No such file or directory. Because perl2host requires the
parent directory of the argument to exist, but here it doesn't.
If I add
mkdir $shorter_tempdir;
above it, then it proceeds past that point, but then the CREATE
TABLESPACE command fails with No such file or directory. I think the call
symlink "$tempdir", $shorter_tempdir;
creates a directory inside $shorter_tempdir, since it now exists, per my
above change, rather than in place of $shorter_tempdir.
I think all of this is still a bit too fragile it needs further
consideration.
