If I run:

$ cat foo.sql

This is a TODO:
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Todo#ALTER
Refactor handling of database attributes between pg_dump and pg_dumpall
Currently only pg_dumpall emits database attributes, such as ALTER
DATABASE SET commands and database-level GRANTs. Many people wish that
pg_dump would do that. One proposal is to let pg_dump issue such
commands if the -C switch was used, but it's unclear whether that will
satisfy the demand.
