Is there a set of flags for mysqldump that will include the auto_increment specifier for columns, but leave out the AUTO_INCREMENT=x saved values? I want to compare the schema of two versions of a database, without considering the data. In my opinion, the saved auto increment counter is part of

2005-02-24 Thread Jim McAtee
