__init__.py files aren't executed at the start of programs, the
presence of them denotes that a directory is a python module, and the
__init__.py is executed when that module is first imported under a
particular name.
Do you have a structure like this:
project
├── __init__.py
├── app1
│ └── __init__.py
└── app2
├── __init__.py
└── models.py
and import from project.app2.models and from app2.models? That would
cause app2's __init__.py to be executed twice.
