I don't see much the point to have --verbose enabled by default, but if that's the consensus I have nothing better to propose than adding something like that to the command launching the prove command: $(if $(PG_PROVE_FLAGS),$(PG_PROVE_FLAGS),--verbose) And then it is possible to enforce the flag for noisy tests. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
