Makes sense. I have pushed this. I just noticed though, that the issue in pg_restore applies not only to the -n and -t switches, but also to -L (where you specify a file with a list of objects to restore) and --filter. Maybe we can this new paragraph mention that as well. -- Álvaro Herrera Breisgau, Deutschland — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "No renuncies a nada. No te aferres a nada."
