Fixed #2166 -- (take two!). Use "manage.py reset ..." to reset a model's
database tables, not the older piped combination that used to be required. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@3137 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

If I make changes to a model, how do I update the database?

-----------------------------------------------------------

If you don't mind clearing data, just pipe the output of the appropriate

manage.py reset appname

|
||||
``manage.py sqlreset`` outputs SQL that clears the app's database
|
||||
table(s) and creates new ones. The above command uses a Unix pipe to send the
|

SQL directly to the database command-line utility, which accepts SQL as

configured in ``settings.py``).

This drops any tables associated with ``appname`` and recreates them.

statements manually in your database. That's the way we've always done it,
