Description
Take a script like the auto-generated migration history table creation by Entity Framework:
```sql
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "__EFMigrationsHistory" (
"MigrationId" character varying(150) NOT NULL,
"ProductVersion" character varying(32) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "PK___EFMigrationsHistory" PRIMARY KEY ("MigrationId")
);
```
This results in a false error if the table actually already exists:
```
psql:/home/runner/work/somethingsomething.sql:5: NOTICE: relation "__EFMigrationsHistory" already exists, skipping
[...]
Error: Error occurred while running action:
Error: error in file: /home/runner/work/somethingsomething.sql
psql:/home/runner/work/somethingsomething.sql:5: NOTICE: relation "__EFMigrationsHistory" already exists, skipping
```
Which subsequently and wrongly fails the build.
