Does logical replication supports cross platform servers?
Hi All,
I am not able to find any docs suggesting that PostgreSQL logical
replication supports
cross platform servers (windows --> Linux or vice-versa).
When I tried with simple basic commands and it worked and also some of the
other members are also suggesting to use logical replication for the above
scenarios in [1]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46603257/can-we-replicate-postgres-data-between-two-os/46603426#46603426.
But I am unable find this support mentioning in the docs, Do we support? or
any problems? If it supports it is better to update the docs.

It should. I don't think there's buildfarm coverage yet, though.

Designing something like that would be more than interesting. We'd need
two or more co-operating animals, a concept that's currently quite
foreign to the buildfarm. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would
be a substantial piece of work. Probably the place to start would be the
save-bin feature discussed elsewhere for things like cross-version
pg_dump/pg_restore checking. We already do that for cross-version
pg_upgrade testing, so it would need to be generalized.

Thanks for the confirmation.
This is a good use case that must be explicitly mentioned in the docs.
How about the attached patch?

OK, doc patch added to git head. Let me know if I should back patch it
further. Thanks.
