The easiest way I've found to do it is to create a changetrack table in pgsql, and then make each update use that. You can get fancy if you want, or just keep it simple. For instance: create table chtrack (id int primary key, changename text, changedesc text); Then in a file you can have: begin; insert into chtrack (id, changename, changedesc) Values (10,'schema create','This change creates the initial db schema'); create table etc... commit; If any of the script fails, the whole thing does and your db doesn't change. Then you can create your new updates in a similar manner. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
