Also, given that recovery.conf has become a key part of our

can rename and edit? Happy to write this too.
We ship it already:

src/backend/access/transam/recovery.conf.sample

and it has sections for HS and SR.

Well, it doesn't get created in PGDATA, and the docs don't mention the
above location that I could find.

Can we get initdb to copy it to whereever the config location is?  That
seems a lot more administrator-friendly than asking people to look in
the source code.



Devrim gave you the wrong location. It is already installed where we put other samples like postgresql.conf.sample, namely $SHAREDIR.

Nobody has to look in the source.

I don't think initdb should copy it by default, many users won't want such an animal at all. Maybe an initdb switch would meet the case.
