Change The Current Directory For psql
When you start a psql session, your current directory is what psql will
use as its current directory. This is important for meta-commands that use
relative paths based on the current directory -- for instance, the \i
meta-command for importing files.
You can change the current directory within a psql session using the \cd
meta-command.
If my current directory is home and there is a sql directory in home, these commands will do the following: ```sql \! pwd -- /home \cd sql \! pwd -- /home/sql ``` The\cdmeta-command even supports tab completion relative to the current directory. You can also change to your home directory using just\cd`.
