The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/app-pgrestore.html Description:
pg_restore seems to have two ways to restore data: --section=data or --data-only There is this cryptic warning that --data-only is "similar to but for historical reasons different from" --section=data But there is no further explanation of what those differences are or what might be missed or different in your restore if you pick one option or the other. Maybe one or the other option is the "preferred current way" and one is the "historical way" or they are aimed at different types of use cases, but that's not clear.
