pg_stop_backup deletes the previous backup history file from pg_xlog. So replication of a backup history file would fail if just one new online-backup is caused after the base-backup for the standby is taken. This is too aggressive deletion policy for Streaming Replication, I think. So I'd like to change pg_stop_backup so as to delete only backup history files of four or more generations ago (four is enough?). Thought?
