Comment (by Althalus):

 I'm using 1.7 now and found that migrations fail too my because upload_to
 function is generated dynamically.
 Consider the folloing example:

 {{{
 # utils/files.py
 def gen_upload_to(fieldname, path, .......):
     def upload_to(instance, filename):
         pass  # some custom logic
     return upload_to

 # app/models.py
 class MyModel(models.Model):
     file = models.FileField(upload_to=gen_upload_to('file',
 'path/to/files'))

 # app/migrations/0001_initial.py
 class Migration(migrations.Migration):
     operations = [
         migrations.CreateModel(
             name='MyModel',
             fields=[
                 ('file',
 models.FileField(upload_to=utils.files.upload_to)),
             ],
         ),
     ]
 }}}

 Obviously my utils/files.py module doesn't contain `upload_to` function
 with results in errors.
 I had to create dummy `upload_to` in there to prevent import errors, but
 anyway every time I use `makemigrations` command django detect changes in
 my `file` field.
