Hello

How do I detect when related models have changed; If I have models such as 
the following:

.. models.py
class Model1(models.Model):

field = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="Some value")


class Model2(models.Model):

field = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="Some value")

 
class Model3(models.Model):

field = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="Some value")


class Model4(models.Model):

one = models.OneToOneField(Model1)

foreign = models.ForeignKey(Model2)

many = models.ManyToManyField(Model3)

counter = models.IntegerField(default=1) 

 

.. test.py
one = Model1.objects.create()
foreign = Model2.objects.create()
many = [Model3.objects.create() for i in xrange(0,5)]
x = Model2.objects.create(one=one, foreign=foreign)
x.many = many
x.save()






Then I perform the following operations:
one.field = "new value"
one.save()
foreign.field = "newer value"
foreign.save()
many[0].field = "newest value"
many[0].save()


How do I detect when these objects have changed? Is there a signal for this 
type of thing?
For example if I want to increment Model4's counter field every time one of 
these objects change, what should I do?


Thanks for any guidance.
