Apologies to confuse you by linking it with group access. This patch doesn't have an interaction with group access. From v11 onwards, PostgreSQL server accepts two set of permissions for the data directory because of group access. we have an application that is used to create the data directory with owner access (0700), but with initdb group permissions option, it automatically converts to (0750) by the initdb. But pg_basebackup doesn't change it when it tries to do a backup from a group access server. > The patch you are > sending is compatible down to v11, but we could also do it further > down by just using chmod with S_IRWXU on the target folder if it > exists and is empty. > Yes, I agree with you that by changing chmod as you said fixes it in the back-branches.
