Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
This is using an entirely different approach to dumping and restoring. The 1.x version treats the database dumps as a single file, while 2.x is dumping every table and data as separate files. This allows much easier manipulation of files that will be faster to perform. Also, on large databases it will allow an easier opportunity to dump and restore only the required tables, which will be significantly faster.
Merging branches and with other developers should be superior this way... that is... if I can get it working :)
This is a minor update to the 5.x-1.x version which just allows dumping and restoring the database as optimized for Drupal 6. Merging, however, is not possible, and will not be possible with this branch.
Since this is the first iteration of this module, this branch is definitely development. I'll try my best to always make it stable by making sure it works with my websites before releasing new code. I am also heavily refactoring things as I go, so the next update may not be compatible with the previous update.
