2021-09-01 - version 2.5
This new release adds support to data restoration in tables with altered structure.
pg_dumpbinary will now create a file meta-schema.<tablename>.txt that stores the tables columns list at export time. pg_restore binary will read this file if present, or get the target columns list from the pre-data section dumped if not present. The target list will be appended to the COPY FROM command to avoid error messages like "ERROR: row field count is 28, expected 29". This is necessary for tables from upgraded extensions with more columns or if you try to import data only into an existent table with more columns.
