One "potential" problem is if a relation has a full set of column which allows the input of text-like data: if the header has been added with COPY TO, and that the user forgets to add again the header option with COPY FROM, then an extra row will be generated but there is the same problem with CSV format :)
One comment I have about the patch is that there is no test for COPY FROM with an output file which has a header. In this case if HEADER is true then the file can be loaded. If HEADER is wrong, an error should normally be raised because of the format (well, let's discard the case of the relation with text-only columns). So the tests could be extended a bit even for CSV. > We're in the middle of a feature freeze that will last most of the > summer, so be sure to enter your patch into the next commitfest so it > can be considered when the freeze is over. > > https://commitfest.postgresql.org/18/
Yes, you will need to be patient a couple of months here. -- Michael
