Thanks Robert,  I tested against the latest PG Head and found a few issues -

A)Getting syntax error if -z is used along with -t

[edb@centos7tushar bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -t server:/tmp/data902 -z -Xfetch
pg_basebackup: error: could not initiate base backup: ERROR:  syntax error

OR

[edb@centos7tushar bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -t server:/tmp/t2 
--compress=server-gzip:9 -Xfetch -v -z
pg_basebackup: initiating base backup, waiting for checkpoint to complete
pg_basebackup: error: could not initiate base backup: ERROR:  syntax error

B)No information of "client-gzip" or "server-gzip" added under 
"--compress" option/method of ./pg_basebackup --help.

C) -R option is silently ignoring

[edb@centos7tushar bin]$  ./pg_basebackup  -Z 4  -v  -t server:/tmp/pp 
-Xfetch -R
pg_basebackup: initiating base backup, waiting for checkpoint to complete
pg_basebackup: checkpoint completed
pg_basebackup: write-ahead log start point: 0/30000028 on timeline 1
pg_basebackup: write-ahead log end point: 0/30000100
pg_basebackup: base backup completed
[edb@centos7tushar bin]$

go to /tmp/pp folder and extract it - there is no "standby.signal" file 
and if we start cluster against this data directory,it will not be in 
slave mode.

if this is not supported then I think we should throw some errors.
