Обсуждение: pg_walsummary, Character-not-present-in-option

Hi hackers,
I found probably something to fix in pg_walsummary.

pg_walsummary specifies “f:iqw:” as the third argument of getopt_long().

However, only i and q are valid options.

Therefore, shouldn't “f:” and “w:” be removed?

Looks like that to me too.  Pushed.

Thanks to Yusuke-san for the report and patch and to Tom for the
commit. I vaguely recall that early in the development of
pg_walsummary I thought it was going to need more options than and
then realized that some of them weren't necessary. Looks like I did a
bad job removing the leftovers; thanks for cleaning it up.
