Fix schema file formats: Add PostgreSQL schema export and remove SQL Server schema

[Copilot]

What changed?

Fixed schema file format issues for PostgreSQL and SQL Server exports:

PostgreSQL (psql/schema.sql):

• Was incorrectly generated using mysqldump (MySQL format)
• Now properly generated using pg_dump --schema-only (PostgreSQL format)
• Creates schema-only file with proper PostgreSQL DDL syntax

SQL Server (sqlserver/schema.sql):

• Was incorrectly generated using mysqldump (MySQL format)
• Removed as schema is already included in individual table exports
• Not needed for SQL Server format exports

Changes:

• Added pg_dump --schema-only command in export workflow for PostgreSQL schema
• Removed mysqldump line for SQL Server schema generation
• Deleted sqlserver/schema.sql file (185 lines)
• Updated .gitignore to track psql/schema.sql and exclude sqlserver/schema.sql
• Updated fix documentation

Notes

PostgreSQL schema export now uses pg_dump --schema-only with proper flags:

• --schema-only: Export only DDL (CREATE statements), no data
• --clean --if-exists: Include DROP IF EXISTS statements for safe imports
• --no-owner --no-acl: Exclude ownership and privilege commands

SQL Server schema file removed as it was MySQL-formatted and redundant. Schema definitions are already included in the individual table SQL exports for SQL Server format.

Result:

• sql/schema.sql - MySQL format (correct, unchanged)
• psql/schema.sql - PostgreSQL format using pg_dump (now correct)
• No sqlserver/schema.sql - removed (not needed)

Done! Changes implemented in commit 04210a2:

Added:

• PostgreSQL schema export using pg_dump --schema-only command
• Proper PostgreSQL-compatible schema file at psql/schema.sql

Removed:

• sqlserver/schema.sql file (was MySQL format)
• MySQL dump command for SQL Server schema generation

The workflow now generates:

• sql/schema.sql - MySQL format (correct)
• psql/schema.sql - PostgreSQL format using pg_dump (correct)
• No sqlserver/schema.sql - schema included in table exports
