0001-Only-allow-upgrades-by-the-same-exact-version-new-v2.patch
I don't understand what this does. Please explain.
0002-Check-all-used-executables-v2.patch
I think we'd also need a check for pg_controldata.
Perhaps this comment could be improved:
/* these are only needed in the new cluster */
to
/* these are only needed for the target version */
(pg_dump runs on the old cluster but has to be of the new version.)
0003-Default-new-bindir-to-exec_path-v2.patch
I don't like how the find_my_exec() code has been moved around. That
makes the modularity of the code worse. Let's keep it where it was and
then structure it like this:
if -B was given:
new_cluster.bindir = what was given for -B
else:
# existing block
