Comment (by semenov):
@Althalus, a very ugly workaround for this would be:
{{{#!python
# utils/files.py
def gen_upload_to(fieldname, path, .......):
import sys
if len(sys.argv) > 1 and sys.argv[1] in ('makemigrations', 'migrate'):
return None # Hide ourselves from Django migrations
def upload_to(instance, filename):
pass # some custom logic
return upload_to
}}}
Too bad Django monitors non-db-related field attributes for no apparent
reason. It's not only upload_to. For instance, it creates a useless
migration even when a field's `help_text` is changed.
