How to migrate a Homebrew-installed PostgreSQL database to a new major version (9.3 to 9.4) on OS X. See upgraded version of this guide: http://olivierlacan.com/posts/migrating-homebrew-postgres-to-a-new-version/

This guide assumes that you recently run brew upgrade postgresql and discovered to your dismay that you accidentally bumped from one major version to another: say 9.3.x to 9.4.x. Yes, that is a major version bump in PG land.

First let's check something.

brew info postgresql

The top of what gets printed as a result is the most important:
