Dear Shubham,

Thanks for updating the patch! I feel the patch has good shape. Here is a small comment.

```
+ /* Error if no databases were found on the source server */
+ if (num_rows == 0)
+ {
+ pg_log_error("no databases found on the source server");
+ pg_log_error_hint("Ensure that there are user-created databases on the source server.");
+ PQclear(res);
+ disconnect_database(conn, false);
+ exit(1);
+ }
```

I think the error message is not accurate. This error can happen when there are
user-created database but it is created as template. How about below:

```
- pg_log_error("no databases found on the source server");
- pg_log_error_hint("Ensure that there are user-created databases on the source server.");
+ pg_log_error("no convertable databases found on the source server");
+ pg_log_error_hint("Ensure that there are non-template and connectable databases on the source server.");
```
