Thread: pg_dump and revision control

Hi all,

I am using postgresql 7.2 on linux and if I try to make

pg_dump, the system generate a big dump file.

I think it depend on revision control on my database.

If it is so how can I dump my data without this revision control?

Many thanks in advance.

Postgres doesn't have revision control. Perhaps you could explain more
clearly what you want.

Hi,

Thank you for the answer. 

I am not expert in postgres. Normaly I am working on Oracle, but I think

postgresql have revision control. I am using pgAdmin II and if I select a data base with rigth button and properties

t exist a checkbox "Revision Control".

So, if I check it postresql support the revision control ( I can make mistake).

In this case I can make pg_dump > mydumpfile.

This mydumpfile is very big ( 10 and more MB for a little db).

After that I create a two new databases - one with revision control

and one without it.

If I import the data I do not have any problems with the new db with revision control, bu I can not import this data on the "normal" db.

I receive many messages :"parser error near "//"".

That is the problem .

Many thanks for the help.
