In other tools too, like psql, you can pass a connection string with -d/--dbname, which is why I thought it would be best to use the same option for passing a connection string to pg_basebackup/pg_dumpall too.


Ah Ok. I was not aware that you can also pass a connection string to psql with -d option. That way it looks consistent though still confusing.
 
See discussion at http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/512520FE.6050701@vmware.com. If you have any better ideas, I'm all ears...


No, I don't have better ideas. I was worried that it was an oversight. But now I know it was chosen this way after a careful consideration.

Thanks,
Pavan
