==========================
Django 4.2.6 release notes
==========================
*Expected October 2, 2023*
Django 4.2.6 fixes several bugs in 4.2.5.
Bugfixes
========
* Fixed a regression in Django 4.2.5 where overriding the deprecated
``DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE`` and ``STATICFILES_STORAGE`` settings in tests caused
the main ``STORAGES`` to mutate (:ticket:`34821`).
* Fixed a regression in Django 4.2 that caused unnecessary casting of string
based fields (``CharField``, ``EmailField``, ``TextField``, ``CICharField``,
``CIEmailField``, and ``CITextField``) used with the ``__isnull`` lookup on
PostgreSQL. As a consequence, the pre-Django 4.2 indexes didn't match and
were not used by the query planner (:ticket:`34840`).
You may need to recreate indexes propagated to the database with Django
4.2 - 4.2.5 as they contain unnecessary ``::text`` casting that is avoided as
of this release.
