Hi!

Sometimes when I need to run pg_basebackup to recreate a slave server I receive the error message below:

Latest checkpoint is at 427A/6D6743F0 on timeline 2, but in the history of the requested timeline, the server forked off from that timeline at 0/0

When it happens.. After I edit master's history file pointing to a timeline referenced by the slave's slot I can issue the pg_basebackup without hassle.

I would like to know If there is any way to ignore or bypass this timeline lookup on master`s history file when issuing pg_basebackup command on slave server.

Thanks!!
