Using pg_rewind for differential backup - Mailing list pgsql-hackers
Can we tweak pg_rewind to take differential backups in PostgreSQL?
I was wondering can we hack the pg_rewind code to print the details of the file which have been modified compared to a target server.
The list output can then be used for taking differential backups.
Or perhaps we can add an option/switch in pg_rewind --action
--action=print ---> would print the files which have changed
--action=sync ---> would sync them
--action=copy ---> with this option I can specify an additional optino --target-dir where I can copy the files which have changed blocks
pg_rewind-
