As per this document: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/auth/passwords/
Django will upgrade all existing passwords to use the 'preferred' algorithm. Two questions: 1. What is the 'preferred' algorithm? Is this set by Django? Or is this simply the hasher at the top (or bottom) of the PASSWORD_HASHERS tuple? 2. *How can I disable or otherwise bypass this feature?* The database I am working with is shared with an older code-base and until we migrate the other components, I"d rather not "upgrade" the existing password hashes.
