Is 2dd9322 a commit? I'm having difficulty finding it:

https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=commit&s=2dd9...

Am I searching wrong?

I probably won't have more time to look at this tonight, but could
I ask in advance for examples of tools that would need this bit when
encountering unwritten pages at the end of a segment?

I don't mean that as snark; it's just nonobvious to me and I might need
a little nudge where to look.
