hi, i use point 1, not include the migration. when first time deploy just init migration. if db schema change just do the schemamigration and migrate command in production when deploy the change. if you include in in prod, how about south db content? how you sync it with production site?
why you would include the dev migration. if want history of metadata change , it is there in models file. i mean do you git?
