Modifications include: - -* Applied 'insert string' patch from "Marc G. Fournier" - - (see insert.patch & README.scrappy for info on this patch) - -* Added '-t table' option - - By specifying '-t table' on the command line you can output only the - schema (table & index defs) and data for one table of a database. - - Example: - - pg_dump -t descriptions software - -* Added '-a' option - - This is the opposite of the -S option. By specifying -a you can output - only the database data and not the schema. - - Example: - - pg_dump -a zipcodes - -* Added '-da' option - - Marc's '-d' option adds the ability to output insert strings, By using - the 'a' sub-parameter you can also place the attribute names in the - insert strings. Basically, this is useful because ALTER TABLE is - broken in pg95 1.01. - - NOTE: This will create some long hairy output files!
