Re: subversion support?

I not sure I follow the question about SQL Navigator and Toad.  

When you edit a function, package, procedure, trigger, etc, it will notify
you via a pop-up window if there is a difference in the committed version
and the database version.  You can then click "show differences" and then it
pops up another window with your typical code differences window.

When you are done revising the code, you then commit it to the repository in
the tool with a click of a button.

So the long story short I'm getting is, "no it is not on the radar".  This
is terribly ironic given the fact that pgAdmin is developed using source
control but the code you write with the tool doesn't have any hooks into
source control.

Well you can still use gui tools and just let them work against a
development database. With little scripting you can just dump
the schema of that database periodically and check it in to SVN.

Hook scripts can then take over the deployment (ideally based
on tag creation)

Does SQL Nav do this? At least the SQL Navigator/Toad support seems
to heavily depend on server side code to help. This looks very unclean
to the very least.

You can test before you commit in the database - unlike Oracle, Postgres
supports transactions even for DDL :-) (ok, I've yet find the button
in pgadmin to disable auto commit :-)
