Yup. But in their defence: the software comes completely free, and does work mostly out of the box. Anyway, perhaps this is an interesting related read, but I have no idea what the current status on this is: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SchemaEvolution And a slightly problematic part is sqlite, which doesn't allow you to ALTER tables (or at least not adding a column to a table); I use sqlite mainly for testing & developing, recreating it every time one of my model changes (the thing there that I found the most hassle is entering an admin login, email & pass; I cannot script that...). > > I guess by "bug" I meant that > > > > synchronizing, by its nature involves making two disparate things > > congruent. > > > > syncdb does not do that. > > Well, it does, up to the part that 'it' (the writers) feels confident > about: it synchronizes the database globally with newly added models; > indeed not per table. > The bug would be mostly in the name then, but I guess > 'create_new_tables_for_new_models_only' was a bit too unwieldy.
