Hi, Recently we committed a patch to dump a full cluster with pg_dumpall in non-text archive format and then restore using pg_restore.
Here, I am proposing a patch to add the "pg_restore --no-globals" option so that users can skip global objects.
I made a patch for pg_restore --no-globals (only pg_restore option, not needed with pg_dumpall as we will filter at restore end, or later we can add for pg_dumpall also.)
Brief: pg_restore: add --no-globals option to skip globals
Do not restore global objects (roles and tablespaces) and even don't create new database if --create or -C is not specified. Note: database will be created only if -C is specified, otherwise restore will be skipped for a particular database. If a db is already created, then data of a particular db will be restored.
Please review this patch and let me know your feedback.
