Thanks!
The problem was that when removing the original "preserve visibility patch"
v12-0005 [1] from the series, I forgot to change the value of
'need_full_snapshot' argument of CreateInitDecodingContext().
v12 and earlier treated the repacked table like system catalog, so it was
o.k. to pass need_full_snapshot=false. However, it must be true now, otherwise
the snapshot created for the initial copy does not see commits of transactions
that do not change regular catalogs.
The fix is as simple as
diff --git a/src/backend/replication/logical/snapbuild.c b/src/backend/replication/logical/snapbuild.c
index f481a3cec6d..7866ac01278 100644
--- a/src/backend/replication/logical/snapbuild.c
+++ b/src/backend/replication/logical/snapbuild.c
@@ -502,6 +502,7 @@ SnapBuildInitialSnapshotForRepack(SnapBuild *builder)
StringInfo buf = makeStringInfo();
Assert(builder->state == SNAPBUILD_CONSISTENT);
+ Assert(builder->building_full_snapshot);
snap = SnapBuildBuildSnapshot(builder);
I'll apply it to the next version of the "Add CONCURRENTLY option to REPACK
command" patch.
