Let's imagine we're taking filesystem snapshots each day by whatever

from that time, so we do a crash recovery from the filesystem
snapshot. Doing continuous archiving from this conflicts with the
existing WALs, which we solve by creating a new timeline.
How is this different from just changing the recovery_command?
*scratches head*
How is it the same?
Creating a dummy recovery.conf with bogus recovery_command would do the
trick.
