Does django-reversion work well with south migrations?
Are django-reversion and south compatible?

Current versions:
- reversion - 1.2.1
- south - 0.7.1

I've never used django-reversion but I see no reason why it wouldn't be compatible.

Indeed, these updated docs from django-reversion detail on migrating from old versions of south and imply south and reversion can work fine together.

  • Thanks Steve. I also reached that page while Googling. I was hoping for a confirmation from someone who tried. Guess I'll go ahead and try it myself :) – Jonathan Livni May 26 '10 at 13:40

    Here's Dave Hall's answer to this Q: Schema migration tools are ignored by Reversion. If you add or change fields, it's all fine. If you remove a field, it breaks. This is the fault of Django's serialization framework, not Reversion. If you do remove a field from your model, delete the Reversion history for that model. Remember: Reversion is all about the DATA, not the schema. – Jonathan Livni Jun 27 '10 at 18:45
  • The link is broken. That's again good example why giving only link without referring contents briefly is a bad idea. – Olli Mar 06 '13 at 10:01
