Обсуждение: Making pg_dump cvs friendly
I have created a patch to postgresql 7.3.3 to make pg_dump more CVS friendly. Basically, pg_dump numbers all of it's TOC entries. Therefore, if you modify or recreate a view that used to be at the beginning, then ALL of your tables/indexes/etc get renumbered, which causes a lot of junk in your CVS. Anyway, the patch is at http://www.eskimo.com/~johnnyb/pgdump-cvs-patch.diff Comments welcome, but this is my first patch, so please be gentle :) Jon
Your patch has been added to the PostgreSQL unapplied patches list at:
http://momjian.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/pgpatches
I will try to apply it within the next 48 hours.
I will merge the two options into one and update the docs accordingly.

I don't think we need to the short option. -m doesn't make sense. The documentation belongs in the pg_dump reference page, not backup.sgml. The help text of the option should be adjusted to look more like the adjacent texts. References to CVS don't belong into the --help output. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

The Do we actually have flags that can only be specified by long ars? If so, I don't see any in pg_dump or psql. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073
