Yes, earlier versions of the patch did follow symlinks only in pg_tblspc. I changed this because Álvaro pointed out that this was likely to miss important stuff, e.g. in 20150403163232.ga28...@eldon.alvh.no-ip.org, 20150406131636.gd4...@alvh.no-ip.org -- Abhijit -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
