Overview
Inspired by Ruby on Rails' migrations, SQLAlchemy Migrate provides a way to deal with database schema changes in SQLAlchemy projects.
Migrate was started as part of Google's Summer of Code by Evan Rosson, mentored by Jonathan LaCour.
The project was taken over by a small group of volunteers when Evan had no free time for the project. It is now hosted as a Google Code project. During the hosting change the project was renamed to SQLAlchemy Migrate.
Currently, sqlalchemy-migrate supports Python versions from 2.6 to 2.7. SQLAlchemy Migrate 0.7.2 supports SQLAlchemy 0.6.x and 0.7.x branches.
Support for Python 2.4 and 2.5 as well as SQLAlchemy 0.5.x has been dropped after sqlalchemy-migrate 0.7.1.
Warning
Version 0.6 broke backward compatibility, please
