Description:
Hi,
I experienced what looks like a minor bug.
I use psql in a regular Windows Command shell and it works as expected for
most cases.
When I switch to reading from stdin however, it suddenly shows the password
I enter onscreen.
So
`psql -d garden < garden-backup.sql`
and similar will cause the password to be readable on screen.
