Did you know?

You can’t use the `IF EXISTS` clause directly with the `RENAME` clause in PostgresQl

PostgresQl does not provide the `IF EXISTS` clause to check if a column exists when you try to rename it with the RENAME clause.
If you also try to rename a column that does not exist Postgres will throw an error. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

So how do you check if the column exists before you try to rename it?
