Hi,
It seems like this part of the documentation was not updated after changing the
default value of recovery_target_timeline to latest in v12.
"The default behavior of recovery is to recover along the same timeline that was current
when the base backup was taken. If you wish to recover into some child timeline (that is, you
want to return to some state that was itself generated after a recovery attempt), you need to
specify the target timeline ID in recovery_target_timeline
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/runtime-config-wal.html#GUC-RECOVERY-TARGET-TIMELINE>.
You cannot recover into timelines that branched off earlier than the base backup." [1][2]
Here is an attempt to fix that.
Thanks for the patch! This looks good to me. Barring any objection, I will
commit it.
Pushed. Thanks!
Regards,
