Subject: pgsql: psql: add an optional execution-count limit to \watch.
Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2023 17:18:30 +0000
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

psql: add an optional execution-count limit to \watch.

\watch can now be told to stop after N executions of the query.

With the idea that we might want to add more options to \watch
in future, this patch generalizes the command's syntax to a list
of name=value options, with the interval allowed to omit the name
for backwards compatibility.
