What is it?

Django south compass is a tool to guide your south migrations.

It is a git hook that keeps your south migrations in sync with your repository.

Installation

$ pip install django-south-compass

Usage

Go to your git repo and do:

$ django-south-compass install

This will set up a git hook so that whenever you checkout a branch, your migrations are synced up.

E.g.

$ git branch
    * master
    feature1
    feature2

$ git checkout feature1
# Migrates to any new migrations added in feature1

$ git checkout master
# Migrates back to the last migration in master

$ git checkout feature2
# Migrates to any new migrations added in feature2

$ git checkout feature1
# Migrates back to the last migration common between
# feature1 and feature2, then migrates forward to feature1
