The primary use case is to interact with a third-party database (not
primarily managed by Django) that doesn't support time zones and where
datetimes are stored in local time when USE_TZ is True.
Configuring a PostgreSQL database with the TIME_ZONE option while USE_TZ
is False used to result in silent data corruption. Now this is an error.
This makes room for a more general introduction about templating.
Updated some links to point to the new location, but kept those that
didn't talk specifically about the DTL.
Previously the FORMAT_MODULE_PATH setting only accepted one string (dotted
module path). A feature has been added to also allow a list of strings.
This is useful when using several reusable third party apps that define new
formats. We can now use them all and we can even override some of the formats
by providing a project-wide format module.

Change database test settings from "TEST_"-prefixed entries in the
database settings dictionary to setting in a dictionary that is itself
an entry "TEST" in the database settings.
Refs #21775
Thanks Josh Smeaton for review.
This feature allows the default `TIMEOUT` Cache argument to be set to `None`,
so that cache instances can set a non-expiring key as the default,
instead of using the default value of 5 minutes.
Previously, this was possible only by passing `None` as an argument to
the set() method of objects of type `BaseCache` (and subtypes).
Introduced a number of settings to configure max-age, path, and domain
for the language cookie: LANGUAGE_COOKIE_AGE, LANGUAGE_COOKIE_PATH and
LANGUAGE_COOKIE_DOMAIN.
Thanks sahid for the suggestion.
This is the result of Christopher Medrela's 2013 Summer of Code project.
Thanks also to Preston Holmes, Tim Graham, Anssi Kääriäinen, Florian
Apolloner, and Alex Gaynor for review notes along the way.
Also: Fixes#8579, fixes#3055, fixes#19844.
When STATIC_ROOT wasn't set, collectstatic --clear would delete
every files within the current directory and its descendants.
This patch makes the following changes:
Prevent collectstatic from running if STATIC_ROOT isn't set.
Fixed an issue that prevented collectstatic from displaying the
destination directory.
Changed the warning header to notify when the command is run
in dry-run mode.
* Removed ADMIN_FOR setting and warn warning
* Group view functions by namespace instead of site
* Added a test verifying namespaces are listed
Thanks to Claude Paroz for reviewing and ideas for improvement.
Previously when collecting static files, the directories would receive permissions
from the global umask. Now the default permission comes from FILE_UPLOAD_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS
and there's an option to specify the permissions by subclassing any of the
static files storage classes and setting the directory_permissions_mode parameter.
The settings reference documentation doesn't seem the right place to
invite users to write their own db and cache backends.
Also the actual wording makes the task sound trivial, which is hardly
the case; writing a custom db backend is a very difficult task, and
writing a custom cache backend is full of gotcha.
Corrected LANGUAGES documentation on how to translate language
names. Now using django.utils.translation.ugettext_lazy instead
of a dummy gettext() function.
Thanks to Salvatore for the report.

Thanks dblack at atlassian.com for the suggestion.
Added settings.SESSION_SERIALIZER which is the import path of a serializer
to use for sessions.
Thanks apollo13, carljm, shaib, akaariai, charettes, and dstufft for reviews.
Sphinx generates left single quotes for apostrophes after
code markup, when right single quotes are required. The
easiest way to fix this is just by inserting the unicode
character for a right single quote.
Instances of the problem were found by looking for
">‘" in the generated HTML.
The note is clearly a part of MESSAGE_STORAGE documentation. As a separate
section, it broke automatic link generation on the HTML version of the
documentation.
Thanks to Preston Timmons for the bulk of the work on the patch, especially
updating Django's own test suite to comply with the requirements of the new
runner. Thanks also to Jannis Leidel and Mahdi Yusuf for earlier work on the
patch and the discovery runner.
Refs #11077, #17032, and #18670.
Replaced them with per-database options, for proper multi-db support.
Also toned down the recommendation to tie transactions to HTTP requests.
Thanks Jeremy for sharing his experience.

Used an absolute path for the SQLite database.
This ensures the settings file works regardless of which directory
django-admin.py / manage.py is invoked from.
BASE_DIR got a +1 from a BDFL and another core dev. It doesn't involve
the concept of a "Django project"; it's just a convenient way to express
relative paths within the source code repository for non-Python files.
Thanks Jacob Kaplan-Moss for the suggestion.

Removed STATIC_ROOT from the default settings template.

Removed MEDIA_ROOT/URL from default settings template.
Many sites will never deal with user-uploaded files, and MEDIA_ROOT is
complicated to explain.

Removed logging config.
This configuration is applied regardless of the value of LOGGING;
duplicating it in LOGGING is confusing.

commit 50417e51996146f891d08ca8b74dcc736a581932
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 15:51:50 2013 +0100
Normalized the default application template.
Removed the default test that 1 + 1 = 2, because it's been committed
way too many times, in too many projects.
Added an import of `render` for views, because the first view will
often be:
def home(request):
return render(request, "mysite/home.html")
The auth doc was a single page which had grown unwieldy.
This refactor split and grouped the content into sub-topics.
Additional corrections and cleanups were made along the way.
