        Do not verify data file checksums. The presence or absence of
        files and the sizes of those files will still be checked. This is
        much faster, because the files themselves do not need to be read.

Title: pg_verifybackup Options: Manifest Path, WAL Parsing, Progress Reporting, Quiet Mode, Checksum Skipping, and WAL Directory
Summary
This section describes several options for pg_verifybackup, including: -m/--manifest-path (specifies the path to the manifest file), -n/--no-parse-wal (disables write-ahead log parsing), -P/--progress (enables progress reporting), -q/--quiet (suppresses output on successful verification), -s/--skip-checksums (skips checksum verification), and -w/--wal-directory (specifies the directory for WAL files).
