That's easily dealt with ;-) ... just rip out all those parts of the diff. I think all that needs to be done in the docs is to list the initdb option in the pg_ctl reference page. If you think it's code-complete, let's just commit the code and not try to have a re-education project going on with the docs. regards, tom lane
