Really? https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/regress-variant.html > Maybe it's time to add documentation for pg_regress? I'm inclined to think that a formal man page wouldn't be that useful, since nobody ever invokes pg_regress directly; as Peter says, what is of interest is the "make check" targets and the corresponding meson behaviors. I think 32.1 is already reasonably thorough about the make targets; but the complete lack of equivalent info about what to do in a meson build clearly needs to be rectified. regards, tom lane
