Howdy,

We're running version 17.6.  Would anyone be able to point me to, or
provide, some sample use cases / scripts / usage to deploy a pg_basebackup
full + --incremental strategy as a backup solution, please?

This will be used temporarily as we are migrating to RDS soon which is why
we're not going with pgBackRest.

Thanks,

Sam
