.. _migration: Migrations for Database Schema Changes ============================================ As you develop django models, it quickly becomes apparent that syncing changes between your models.py and your database schema is not sufficiently handled by ``manage.py syncdb``. Using ``south``, you can create migrations - python code which describes how to alter the database schema and contents to keep up with changes in your model definitions. For full details, please check out the `Madrona Migration Wiki Page `_ or the `south documentation `_.
