PostgreSQL IsIdentity is creating the PK the old way?
See original GitHub issueDescribe the question
When I’m creating a new table for my PostgreSQL v12.2 and I set the IsIdentity property to true for the PK the column is created as serial NOT NULL. This is the old way of creating PK in PostgreSQL (before v10) and the new way is int4 NOT NULL GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY
Do you know how can I set this option so the PK can be created by the new way?
