Hi,

While reading the subscription code I noticed one error message that doesn't follow the project's style: in check_remote_recovery_state() in subscriptioncmds.c, the errmsg() for the "publisher is in recovery" case ends with a period. The convention elsewhere (including the similar message a few lines above in the same file) is no trailing period.

The attached one-line patch removes the trailing period from that string. No behavior change.

Thanks,

Sahitya Chandra
