[BUGS] BUG #14658: psql set autocommit in command line - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      14658
Logged by:          Stefan Lindner
Email address:      lindner@visionet.de
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.3
Operating system:   CentOS 7.2
Description:

We have set AUTOCOMMIT to off in our global psqlrc file.

If I do the following, I can set it to on:
> psql
# \set AUTOCOMMIT on
# \echo :AUTOCOMMIT
on

Now I start psql with command line parameters

> psql --set AUTOCOMMIT on
# \echo :AUTOCOMMIT
off

I expected that the command line --set overrides the global setting in
psqlrc file.

Am I wrong?

And how can I set AUTOCOMMIT to ON per command line if I was wrong?
