Hi,
While working on patch [1], I spotted two small issues in pg_resetwal.
1. The -c option accepts two XIDs. The first is parsed by strtouint32_strict(),
but the second is parsed by strtoul(). This seems to be an oversight in
636c1914b48, which introduced strtouint32_strict().
2. The help message for the -c option says that “zero means no change”, but
this behavior is missing on the current master branch. I checked the git
history, and the behavior was lost in 978cf02bb8c, which added separate “given”
flags for command-line options.
The fixes for both issues are tiny. See the attached patch for details.
Unfortunately, I reviewed both patches but didn't notice these issues at the
time. Both commits were included in PG19, so this might be worth back-patching
to 19.
Pushed, thanks!
