Description

When pasting from .shp source with 'gid' into a postgis layer, in 2.18 it just ignore the 'gid' of the source.
As a result, you got complained when trying to save editing

Could not commit changes to layer <layername>

Errors: ERROR: 6849 feature(s) not added.

Provider errors:
      PostGIS error while adding features: ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "&lt;layername&gt;_pkey" 
    DETAIL:  Key (gid)=(2) already exists.

WORKAROUND: manually delete .shp source's gid field before copying

Hi

I'm having the same kind of problem.

While copying an object from a different source (shapefile or geopackage) with a different attribute table, I encounter constraint-related errors on my destination table (in next example, the id field is of type "SERIAL PRIMARY KEY" in PostGreSQL, so, PostgreSQL generates id).
In QGIS2, we could modify the attribute data of the object before recording in the database, I have the feeling that QGIS3 directly records the object in database juste after paste.
