Hello!
We need to log the pg_dump's state.
What objects are in copy, and what are the starting and ending times.
But when I try to redirect the output, the result doesn't have timestamps.
PG 11, on Windows.
As I see the -v option isn't enough to see the starting times.
For example:
2020-11-19 12:00:01.084 Dump table content table1
2020-11-19 12:03:12.932 Dump table content table2
...
etc.
If you are redirecting to a file it have the creation time that you can
use. Internally times don't really matter for the objects as the dump is
based on a snapshot. Said snapshot is based on visible transactions not
time. So for practical purposes they all occur at the same 'time'.
It makes all the difference when monitoring the progress of a backup.
