Hi Sahil, I've also been playing with a local pgarchives setup recently.
I ended up using loader/sql/schema.sql in that repository to create some
of the missing tables, and then the migration scripts to fill the rest
in. Hopefully someone knows of an easier or more straightforward way.

I am also interested in the answer to this, but unfortunately I don't
have much advice to offer. My local setup contains manually inserted
rows as well. I tried to use loader/pglister_sync.py as a bit of a
guide. The Django admin interface also helped a little bit (for example
with list creation), but in the end I had to construct queries for the
remaining pieces.
