#23586: Why does django 1.7 creates migrations for changes in field choices?
-------------------------------+--------------------
     Reporter:  variable       |      Owner:  nobody
         Type:  Uncategorized  |     Status:  new
    Component:  Uncategorized  |    Version:  1.7
     Severity:  Normal         |   Keywords:

Easy pickings:  0              |      UI/UX:  0
-------------------------------+--------------------
 I have observed this behaviour on version 1.7 but not in previous versions
 using south migration.

 eg.


 {{{
     class RedemptionCode(models.Model):
         EXPIRE_OPTIONS = (
             ('1 week', '1 Week'),
         )

         expire_option = models.CharField(max_length=255,
 choices=EXPIRE_OPTIONS)
 }}}


 when I added more options:


 {{{
     EXPIRE_OPTIONS = (
         ('1 week', '1 Week'),
         ('2 weeks', '2 Weeks'),
         ('1 month', '1 Month'),
         ('1 day', '1 Day'),
     )
 }}}


 and run `makemigrations`, it creates a migration for it, coming from
 `south` background I thought it should say no changes detected as it
 doesn't affects database schema. I don't know what purpose it serves:


 {{{
     class Migration(migrations.Migration):

         dependencies = [
             ('credits', '0001_initial'),
         ]

         operations = [
             migrations.AlterField(
                 model_name='redemptioncode',
                 name='expire_option',
                 field=models.CharField(max_length=255, choices=[('1 week',
 '1 Week'), ('2 weeks', '2 Weeks'), ('1 month', '1 Month'), ('1 day', '1
 Day')]),
             ),
         ]
 }}}
