This thread as a whole is going on and on. Instead I thought I would
reply back to the OP and see where that goes.
I too like to see references in commit messages to the email threads. It
definitely makes it easier to track the collaboration of the commit.
I wonder if now is the time (again) to consider an issue tracker. Think
about it! This whole thread would be solved with a commit message that said:
Allow replicated slaves to load balance plans to take load off the
master per #18235 -- Robert Haas
Then all you have to do is hit #18235 into the issue tracker and viola!
I know our community historically has been against most things NIH but
if we step back objectively --- using an issue tracker for this is
certainly not any more crazy that implementing yet another new wheel.
Sincerely,
JD
