I agree with that split, the current split was mainly for the reason
that some of the patches (except 1, 3 and 6, which are quite
substantially different from the rest) each have had their seperate
concerns voiced about the changes contained in that patch (be it
direct or indirect); e.g. the renaming of lines_* to tuples_* is in my
opionion a good thing, and Josef disagrees.
Anyway, please find attached patchset v6 applying that split.
Regarding only a simple test: I believe it is useful to have at least
a test that distinguishes between two different import types. I've
made a mistake before, so I think it is useful to add a regression
tests to prevent someone else from making this same mistake (trivial
as it may be). Additionally, testing in copy.sql also allows for
validating the bytes_total column, which cannot be tested in copy2.sql
due to the lack of COPY FROM FILE -support over there. I'm +0.5 on
keeping it as-is in copy.sql, so unless someone has some strong
feelings about this, I'd like to keep it in copy.sql.
