I agree -- I would go as far as just documenting --no-sync only and
keeping the --nosync one working with minimal (if any) visibility in
docs.
Okay, here's a patch to do that. I don't think it's the other patch's
job to do it.
I also changed --noclean to --no-clean, and --no-locale was already correct.
Suggest a comment along the lines "Where flags of the form --xxx have a
negated form, then the preferred negated form is --no-xxx - and that any
existing use of the form --noxxx should be converted to --no-xxx, as the
non hyphenated form is now deprecated & will be removed in a future
version of Postgres."
Possibly generate warningswhen the non hyphenated form is used?
Cheers,
Gavin
