As an item of curiosity - is there a way to resurrect the database from
a backup of the files? I understand that if the backup was taken while
the db was running it would be in an inconsistent state, but surely if
the whole thing was there postgres would be able to roll back the
transactions?
Why can't postgres be restored from file backups? Is there a hack to do
it?
