I would like to add the flags given to pg_dump into the output of the pg_dump
file. For text dumps, the output would go on a line below the current header,
so output would look like:
--
-- PostgreSQL database dump complete
--
-- Generated by: pg_dump -s -U rob pagila
--
For compressed dumps, the output could go into the headers created with -l,
for example:
; Archive created at Mon Jun 2 16:43:19 2008
; dbname: pgods
; TOC Entries: 3
; Compression: -1
; Dump Version: 1.10-0
; Format: CUSTOM
; Integer: 4 bytes
; Offset: 8 bytes
; Dumped from database version: 8.3.1
; Dumped by pg_dump version: 8.3.1
; Generated by: pg_dump -s -U rob -Fc pagila
;
;
; Selected TOC Entries:
Anyone see any issues with this? Should there be other information taken into
account? Does this need to be an option itself, or can we just do it in all
cases?
