Hi,
While executing the following command I got:
$ pg_ctl init -D /tmp/foo -o -N 11
/home/euler/pg/bin/initdb: invalid option -- N
Try initdb --help for more information.
pg_ctl: database system initialization failed
I tried -N 11 (postgres option) after looking at the manual but the -o
option only accept initdb options so I think there is a documentation bug.
Patch is attached.
While at it, is it worth adding a pg_ctl init example?
