Andres Freund 408f043853 pg_rewind: fsync target data directory. 
Previously pg_rewind did not fsync any files. That's problematic, given
that the target directory is modified. If the database was started
afterwards, 2ce439f33 luckily already caused the data directory to be
synced to disk at postmaster startup; reducing the scope of the problem.

To fix, use initdb -S, at the end of the pg_rewind run. It doesn't seem
worthwhile to duplicate the code into pg_rewind, and initdb -S is
already used that way by pg_upgrade.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
