Hi, I frequently use pg_dump to dump databases and compare them with diff. To get rid of most "false positives", I'd like to patch pg_dump to sort the table so that its dumped order isn't changed more than necessary by insertions & Co.
So I'm looking for a query that will return a list of a table's attributes that are sortable (e. g. no XML fields) and sorted by "uniqueness", i. e. first attributes repre- senting the primary key, then other unique keys, then the rest. Before I dive into the depths of PostgreSQL's system cata- logues, has anyone already solved this problem?
