##### target-exclusive

Defines whether recovery to the target whould be exclusive (the default is inclusive) and is only valid when `--type` is `time` or `xid`. For example, using `--target-exclusive` would exclude the contents of transaction `1007` when `--type=xid` and `-target=1007`. See `recovery_target_inclusive` option in Postgres docs for more information.
