Обсуждение: pg_restore --help

People,

In pg_restore --help I see this:

  -O, --no-owner           do not output commands to set object ownership
[...]
  -x, --no-privileges      skip restoration of access privileges (grant/revoke)


Do we talk about "output commands" to do things, or directly about
restoration?  I think -O description should be

  -O, --no-owner           skip restoration of object ownership

or something similar, to be consistent.  Patch for that attached, but
feel free to editorialize ...

This seems reasonable, but I wonder whether we should hold it for 8.1.
There hasn't been any official declaration that translatable strings
are frozen for 8.0 --- but are we at that point yet?  Even if we're
not at hard freeze, minor wording improvements might be out.

Peter, I'll defer to your judgment on this ...

Not sure, I've been holding translations precisely because strings are
not frozen yet ...

Change it right now, and then we'll freeze. :)
