Tom Lane 918de37652 Revert ill-considered change in pg_resetwal output.
Commit 31dcfae83 changed one pg_resetwal output string, and a
corresponding test in pg_upgrade, without sufficient thought for
the consequences.  We can't change that output without creating
hazards for cross-version upgrades, since pg_upgrade needs to be able
to read the output of several different versions of pg_resetwal.
There may well be external tools with the same requirement.

For the moment, just revert those two changes.  What we really
ought to do here is have a separate, stable, easily machine-readable
output format for pg_resetwal and pg_controldata, as proposed
years ago by Alvaro.  Once that's in place and tools no longer
need to depend on the exact spelling of the human-readable output,
we can put back this change.

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:

	https://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
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
