Question about squashing django migrations

Hi everyone,

Can someone please explain the implications of this note about squashing migrations in the documentation?

From: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/migrations/

"Once you've squashed a migration, you should not then re-squash that squashed migration until you have fully transitioned it to a normal migration."

 Is there a transition command to convert a squashed migration into a normal migration, or how should I go about this?

Here is my current migration situation:

Migrations:

• 0001_initial.py
• ...
• 0052_auto_20150711_1407.py

have been squashed into:

• 0001_squashed_0052_auto_20150711_1407.py

Since then, I have created further migrations:

• 0002_auto_20150731_0651.py
• 0003_auto_20150731_0659.py

I was a little surprised that the numbering continued from 0002 and not 0053. I am concerned that I will become confused with the overlapping numbering before/after the squash so I would like to streamline things a little. I'm ok to remove the first set of migrations 0001 to 0052 as they are correctly captured by the first squash.

What are your recommendations in a case like this?

Thanks!
Richard Brockie
