Hello.

I'm trying to execute an sql script file in a single transation. The file
contains includes for some other scripts which in my example create some
tables. It looks like this:
    \include ../tables/table1.cre
    \include ../tables/table2.cre
    ...
    \include ../tables/table10.cre

I'm executing it using psql:
    psql -X --set AUTOCOMMIT=off --set ON_ERROR_STOP=on -e
--single-transaction -d my_db -f my_script.sql

The problem is that errors with the include meta command do not cause a
transactiopn rollback. e.g. if some of tableX.cre files is missing, any
changes before its include will be commited. However, if there's some SQL
syntax error, everyting works as expected.

Is it possible to somehow handle include related errors and rollback the
active transcation?

I'm using PostgreSQL 9.2.1.

P.S. Initially I asked this question at dba.stackexchange.com:
