Обсуждение: Does it make sense to add a -q (quiet) flag to initdb?

Hello,

Per: https://www.commandprompt.com/blog/can_i_make_initdb_quiet/

This was a question that was asked on #postgresql. Obviously we found a 
work around but I wonder if it makes sense to add a -q to solve some of 
these issues? (I could see it being useful with automation).

Sincerely,

JD

Well, there's always pg_ctl initdb -s (not sure why it's -s instead of 
the more common -q...). ISTM it'd be better to point people that 
direction, but a silent option to initdb certainly wouldn't hurt (and 
would maybe simplify pg_ctl as well...)
