I think I agree. The current behavior would have made sense in older releases of PG where we plopped down our stuff right inside the tablespace directory, but now that everything is being shoved in a subdirectory I don't see a reason to copy anything other than that subdirectory. Of course it's probably bad style to have anything that's not related to PG in there, but given that the whole point of this change was to allow different PG versions to create tablespaces on the same directory at the same time, we can hardly say that this is a case that should never arise in real life. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
