From 07684443b1e03cd56a6a9dee589f5de91e3f9a34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Álvaro Herrera Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2025 14:03:01 +0200 Subject: Rename XLogData protocol message to WALData This name is only used as documentation, and using this name is consistent with its byte being a 'w'. Renaming it would also make the use of a symbolic name based on the word "WAL" rather than the obsolete "XLog" term more consistent, per future commits along the lines of 37c7a7eeb6d1, 4a68d5008869, f4b54e1ed985.
