I suppose you mean store_change(). Yes, I tried to free the individual chunks
and forgot these. The next version uses a new, per-change memory context.

Good point. I added a new argument to rebuild_relation_finish_concurrent() so
that the identity index is only determined once.

On ERROR / FATAL, RepackWorkerShutdown() should send the message before
detaching. elog.c does it via send_message_to_frontend(), due to the previous
call of pq_redirect_to_shm_mq() in RepackWorkerMain(). ProcessRepackMessages()
then only needs to care about the message, not about the worker's detaching.

Definitely. I missed the addition of the INCLUDE columns feature during
maintenance of pg_squeeze, and copied the bug to REPACK. Fixed.

AFAIC they should be equal, but what you propose simplifies the code a
bit. Done.

Initially I added a header comment (XXX) to
SnapBuildInitialSnapshotForRepack() saying that some of the checks, including
this one, could be adopted. The checks were problematic in the backend
executing REPACK. However, they appear to be fine if the code is executed by
the logical decoding worker. So what I'm trying now is to add a new argument
"repack" to SnapBuildInitialSnapshot() and remove the original 0003 diff
("Move conversion of a historic to MVCC snapshot to a separate function.")
from the series altogether.
