sha512sum (program) gives different result than sha512 in PG11

[Andreas Joseph Krogh <andreas@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

 

Anyone can explain why these two don't give the same result?

 

1.

$ echo "A" | sha512sum
7a296fab5364b34ce3e0476d55bf291bd41aa085e5ecf2a96883e593aa1836fed22f7242af48d54af18f55c8d1def13ec9314c926666a0ba63f7663500090565  -
 

2.

$ psql -A -t -c "select encode(sha512('A'), 'hex')"
21b4f4bd9e64ed355c3eb676a28ebedaf6d8f17bdc365995b319097153044080516bd083bfcce66121a3072646994c8430cc382b8dc543e84880183bf856cff5
 

Thanks!
