Okay, but EDB is the largest corporate contributor to Postgres, and one of the people pushing against the feature (Bruce Momjian) also works for EDB?

The PG community is a lot of things, but I think “dominated by commercial interests” is not one of them.

Disclosure: I work at EDB :)

pgbackrest works purely at the file level, by looking at checksums. It’s rather primitive by comparison.

It seems that “younger generation” programmers underestimate the value of governance in OSS. The recent Terraform kerluffle couldn’t have happened if Terraform was in the ASF, etc.

3 of 7 work at EDB, and the core team doesn’t drive the project roadmap. And EDB hackers fail to get patches in all the time, just like everyone else :)
