Note that "shutdowned" is incorrect English; we've let it live in the code because it's not user-visible, but we should certainly not immortalize it where it becomes so. I suppose "--no-ensure-shutdown" is okay, although I think some may prefer "--no-ensure-shut-down". Opinions from native speakers would be welcome. Also, let's expand "auto-fix" to "automatically fix" (or "repair" if there's room in the line? Not sure. Can be bikeshedded to death I guess.)
I choose that one from the below tree.
--no-ensure-shutdown
--no-ensure-shutdowned
--no-ensure-clean-shutdown
Now I agree for user experience we should not use the 2nd one. For
--no-ensure-clean-shutdown or -no-ensure-shut-down, seems too many -.
I'm using --no-ensure-shutdown in the new version unless there are better suggestions.
Secondarily, I see no reason to test connstr_source rather than just "conn" in the other patch; doing it the other way is more natural, since it's that thing that's tested as an argument.
pg_rewind.c: Please put the new #include line keeping the alphabetical order.
Agreed to the above suggestions. I attached the v9.
