expanding on Stefan's solution:
You probably want a separate settings.py or at least a settings.py
file that is 'production' vs 'non-production' aware. I suggest using
hostname. You wouldn't want to blast the production database from
your development machine! Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way
to avoid (initially) updating every URL (not just urls.py), but also
any references in templates, views, get_absolute_url(), etc.
Just a thought, it is possible to deloy on a separate machine? That
should pretty much eliminate Django URL related issues and might be
more economical. The toil and trouble trade off might be worth it.
