I was writing some unit tests for a model in which I'd written a custom __cmp__ method and got a strange result. Is it a bug, feature, or just something to warn people about.
django.db.models.Model defines __eq__ and __ne__ based on PK identity. That means that all model objects are == to one another until they've been saved in the database because their PKs don't get set until they're saved. In my case, >>> name1 < name2 and name2 > name1 True >>> name1 != name2 False Is it worth it to check if the PK exists in the equality check, or have I just hit something that's not likely to ever surface in the real world?
