Hello postgres hackers, Recently I encountered an issue: pg_rewind fails when dealing with in-place tablespace. The problem seems to be that pg_rewind is treating in-place tablespace as symbolic link, while in fact it should be treated as directory. Here is the output of pg_rewind: pg_rewind: error: file "pg_tblspc/16385" is of different type in source and target To help reproduce the failure, I have attached a tap test. And I am pleased to say that I have also identified a solution for this problem, which I have included in the patch. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards, Rui Zhao
