pg_restore should restore the schema comments and the database properties - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi,

I know this discussion has already been made, but for us it is a real problem that database properties are not restored with pg_restore. For me, the comment on a database, as well as the properties like pg_search_path are part of the data of the database. They are even contained in the dumps, so please add a function to pg_restore to let me restore this data also. It is really annoying not to be able to just use DROP DATABASE, CREATE DATABASE and pg_restore to get exactly the same thing  you had before.

I would also like a function that does a CREATE DATABASE on restore automatically, but I don’t want to wish for too much here.

Thank you very much in advance,

Daniel Migowski
