How to UPDATE table from csv file?

How to update table from csv file in PostgreSQL? (version 9.2.4)

Copy command is for insert. But I need to update table. How can I update table from csv file without temp table?
I don't want to copy to temp table from csv file and update table from temp table.
And no merge command like Oracle?

The simple and fast way is with a temporary staging table, like detailed in this closely related answer:

If you don't "want" that for some unknown reason, there are more ways:

• A foreign data wrapper with file_fdw.
  You can run UPDATE commands directly using this one.

• pg_read_file(). For special use cases.

There is no MERGE command in Postgres, even less for COPY.
Discussion about whether and how to add it is ongoing. Check out the Postgres Wiki for details.
