It seems you forgot to remove the comments after removing the code
corresponding to the above. See below.
+ *
+ * LOGICALREP_PROTO_LOCALONLY_VERSION_NUM is the minimum protocol version with

Few other comments on 0001
========================
1.
+ * Return true if data has originated remotely when only_local option is
+ * enabled, false otherwise.

Can we slightly change the comment to:"Return true if the data source
(origin) is remote and user has requested only local data, false
otherwise."

2.
+SELECT pg_replication_origin_session_reset();
+SELECT pg_drop_replication_slot('regression_slot_only_local');
+SELECT pg_replication_origin_drop('regress_test_decoding:
regression_slot_only_local');

At the end of the file, there should be a new line.

+       If true, subscription will request the publisher to send locally
+       originated changes at the publisher node, or send any publisher node
+       changes regardless of their origin

The case where this option is not set is not clear from the
description. Can we change the description to: "If true, the
subscription will request that the publisher send locally originated
changes. False indicates that the publisher sends any changes
regardless of their origin."

4. This new option 'subonlylocal' is placed before 'substream' in docs
(catalogs.sgml) and after it in structures in pg_subscription.h. I
suggest adding it after 'subdisableonerr' in docs and
pg_subscription.h. Also, adjust other places in subscriber-side code
to place it consistently.

To keep this part of the code consistent, I think it is better to
place 'subonlylocal' after 'subdisableonerr' in SubscriptionInfo.
