Hi Shlok.
Some review comments for v15.
//////
v15-0001
//////
======
GENERAL
1.
The "20devel" is available, so now you can modify those version checks
in pg_dump.c and describe.c code.
======
src/test/regress/sql/publication.sql
2.
+-- fail - table object is specified in EXCEPT sequence list
+CREATE TABLE tab1(a int);
+CREATE PUBLICATION regress_pub_should_fail FOR ALL SEQUENCES EXCEPT
(SEQUENCE tab1);
All the other objects have a `regress_` prefix so should this be `regress_tab1`?
~~~
3.
+-- Test combination of ALL SEQUENCES and ALL TABLES with EXCEPT clause
+SET client_min_messages = 'ERROR';
+CREATE PUBLICATION regress_pub_for_allsequences_alltables_except FOR
ALL TABLES EXCEPT (TABLE testpub_tbl1), ALL SEQUENCES EXCEPT (SEQUENCE
regress_seq0);
+\dRp+ regress_pub_for_allsequences_alltables_except
+RESET client_min_messages;
3a.
I suggest moving this test to be grouped with the earlier non-failing
tests. Probably then you won't need the extra set/reset
client_min_messages.
~
3b.
Maybe you could have excluded the same `tab1` (renamed `regress_tab1`)
that was created, instead of excluding some random table from
elsewhere.

src/test/subscription/t/037_except.pl

+$node_subscriber->safe_psql('postgres',
+ 'DROP SUBSCRIPTION tap_sub_all_seq_except');
+$node_publisher->safe_psql('postgres',
+ 'DROP PUBLICATION tap_pub_all_seq_except1');
+$node_publisher->safe_psql('postgres',
+ 'DROP PUBLICATION tap_pub_all_seq_except2');
+
$node_publisher->stop('fast');
Missing a comment that says "Cleanup" ?

Kind Regards,
Peter Smith.
