The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/app-pg-ctl.html
Description:

The docs for --wait still say:

"When waiting for startup, pg_ctl repeatedly attempts to connect to the
server."

I believe it's been changed to examine postmaster.pid instead (thanks
Tom!).
