the server version check is now always enforced. Relax the version check to
allow a server that is of pg_dump's own major version but a later minor
version; this is the only case that -i was at all safe to use in.
pg_restore already enforced only a very weak version check, so this is
really just a documentation change for it.
Per discussion.
dumps can be loaded into databases without the same tablespaces that the
source had. The option acts by suppressing all "SET default_tablespace"
commands, and also CREATE TABLESPACE commands in pg_dumpall's case.

useful and confuses people who think it is the same as -U. (Eventually
we might want to re-introduce it as being an alias for -U, but that should
not happen until the switch has actually not been there for a few releases.)
Likewise in pg_dump and pg_restore. Per gripe from Robert Treat and
subsequent discussion.
one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing
ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID. Slightly more code but
much less likely to create future maintenance problems.
portable long options. But we have had portable long options for a long
time now, so this is obsolete. Now people have added options which *only*
work with -X but not as regular long option, so I'm putting a stop to this:
-X is deprecated; it still works, but it has been removed from the
documentation, and please don't add more of them.
o remove many WIN32_CLIENT_ONLY defines
o add WIN32_ONLY_COMPILER define
o add 3rd argument to open() for portability
o add include/port/win32_msvc directory for

pg_restore. It restores the given schemaname only. It can be used in
conjunction with the -t and other switches to make the selection very
fine grained.

AUTHORIZATION commands by default. Move all GRANT and REVOKE commands
to the end of the dump to avoid restore failures in several situations.
Bring back --use-set-session-authorization option to get previous SET

environment variable processing to libpq.
The patch also adds code to our client apps so we set the environment
variable directly based on our binary location, unless it is already
set. This will allow our applications to emit proper locale messages
that are generated in libpq.

localisation and exit code. I also added some comments about one sql
command which is not ignored.

pg_depend to determine a safe dump order. Defaults and check constraints
can be emitted either as part of a table or domain definition, or
separately if that's needed to break a dependency loop. Lots of old
half-baked code for controlling dump order removed.
to control object ownership. The use-set-session-authorization and
no-reconnect switches are obsolete (still accepted on the command line,
but they don't do anything). This is a precursor to fixing handling
of CREATE SCHEMA, which will be a separate commit.
getopt_long(). This is more or less the same problem as we saw earlier
with getaddrinfo() and struct addrinfo, and for the same reason: random
user-added libraries might contain the subroutine, but there's no
guarantee we will find the matching header files.
not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments. We decided
years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command
line should be treated as literally correct. Remove the inconsistent
code that has crept in recently. Also fix pg_dump so that the combination
of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one
table from exactly one schema. Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.
