The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/app-pgrestore.html Description:
Good Morning, In the `pg_restore` docs (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgrestore.html), `--if-exists` states that it is to > Use conditional commands (i.e., add an IF EXISTS clause) > to drop database objects. This option is not valid unless > --clean is also specified.", but not being a SQL expert, > I'm having a hard time deciphering this. Suggestion: Would you consider adding the sentence (or something similar)? > "--clean makes pg_restore drop all objects first, > and --if-exists prevents that non-existent objects > cause a failure." Source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/75136163/1498178 This is succinct, and tells exactly what one needs to know. Thank you and have a great day! Appreciatively, Attila
