Error running pg_dump on git bash: too many command-line arguments

The entered string is interpreted by rules per shell and the process is started.Same

pg_dump-c-Uxxxx-h xxxx.rds.amazonaws.com-f "C:\Users\xxxx.sql"

Even if you enter , the git bash (bash) and the command prompt (cmd.exe) have different interpretations.

• bash
  • " is interpreted as a quart string.Removed after interpretation.
  • \ is interpreted as an escape sequence.Any \ that does not fall under the escape sequence is removed.
  Arguments passed to
  • pg_dump are similar to -c-Uxxxx-h xxxx.rds.amazonaws.com-f C:Usersxxxx.sql (depending on the character after \).
• cmd.exe
  • " is interpreted as a quart string.It will remain after interpretation.
  • \ is interpreted as a normal string and is not specifically translated.
  Arguments passed to
  • pg_dump are -c-Uxxxx-h xxxx.rds.amazonaws.com-f "C:\Users\xxxx.sql".

pg_dump booted from bash did not receive the correct filename in -f, so it is not clear what to do if you connect to the server, and the connection process is not progressing.Isn't that why you don't ask for your password?

bash to have the same result as cmd.exe

pg_dump-c-Uxxxx-h xxxx.rds.amazonaws.com-f "\"C:\\Users\\xxxx.sql\""

and so on.

pg_dump does not require " or recognizes / as directory separated

pg_dump-c-Uxxxx-h xxxx.rds.amazonaws.com-f "C:/Users/xxxx.sql"

But it might work.This area is program dependent and cannot be said for certain.
