Hi All, The pg_restore documentation usually mentions the pair of switches which can not be used together. However, it does not mention that --create and --single-transaction can not be used together. Here's a patch fixing the same. Looking for a precedence, I found that we have mentioned a similar limitation concerning --data-only and --schema-only only under --schema and not at both the sections. Maybe it's missing or we chose to mention it only at one place. But then I am not sure which one place I should use to mention the new limitation. So, I have added the note in the sections corresponding to both the switches so that a user reading either of them knows about the limitation. -- Best Wishes, Ashutosh Bapat
