If my perusal of the sql generated by pg_dump is correct, then it
doesn't appear that it's wrapped in a transaction, and thus might be
able to only complete a partial restore?
Or does
psql myDatabase <mypg_dumpfile
wrap the file stream in a transaction?
If not, is there a reason why it can't be done so (some process that
cannot be run as a transaction inside the file)?
Or should I just add begin and commit statements at the beginning and
end of file?
I want to provide a mechanized daily update of one schema into a
differently named database, and I'd like it to rollback if if fails.
