That was about barman, in the barman group.  This is asking about pgbackrest...  :)

So: does pgbackrest have this ability which barman does not have? The "--db-include" option seems to indicate that you can restore a single db, but does indicate whether or not you can rename it.

https://pgbackrest.org/configuration.html#section-restore/option-db-include


Which implies that you can't do it?

You can restore a single database and then issue a simple ALTER DATABASE command to change the DB name.


(Postgres backup/restore capabilities are quite limited, which is disapointing.)

Not sure I agree with that. If you want to restore and then rename a DB, rename it.

ALTER DATABASE foo RENAME TO bar;
