Why would they not see it in their share/pg_hba.conf.sample? It will not affect the existing one in $PGDATA, but why wouldn't the installed .sample change? > My point is if we change configuration files and then don't bump the > catalog version, the share/*.sample files get out of sync with the files > in /data, which can be kind of confusing. They would - but what you are saying above is that they would not get out of sync, because the share/*.sample also don't update.
