Oh, OK. When I was testing, I didn't realize that pg_restore doesn't do
anything unless you specify the database via -d, but I see it in the
docs now:
pg_restore can operate in two modes: If a database name is
specified, the archive is restored directly into the
database. Otherwise, a script containing the SQL commands
necessary to rebuild the database is created (and written
to a file or standard output), similar to the ones created
by the pg_dump plain text format. Some of the options con-
trolling the script output are therefore analogous to
pg_dump options.
