Django 1.10.1 release notes

September 1, 2016

Django 1.10.1 fixes several bugs in 1.10.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a crash in MySQL connections where SELECT @@SQL_AUTO_IS_NULL doesn’t return a result (:ticket:`26991`).
  • Allowed User.is_authenticated and User.is_anonymous properties to be compared using ==, !=, and | (:ticket:`26988`, :ticket:`27154`).
  • Removed the broken BaseCommand.usage() method which was for optparse support (:ticket:`27000`).
  • Fixed a checks framework crash with an empty Meta.default_permissions (:ticket:`26997`).
  • Fixed a regression in the number of queries when using RadioSelect with a ModelChoiceField form field (:ticket:`27001`).
  • Fixed a crash if request.META['CONTENT_LENGTH'] is an empty string (:ticket:`27005`).
  • Fixed the isnull lookup on a ForeignKey with its to_field pointing to a CharField or pointing to a CharField defined with primary_key=True (:ticket:`26983`).
  • Prevented the migrate command from raising InconsistentMigrationHistory in the presence of unapplied squashed migrations (:ticket:`27004`).
  • Fixed a regression in Client.force_login() which required specifying a backend rather than automatically using the first one if multiple backends are configured (:ticket:`27027`).
  • Made QuerySet.bulk_create() properly initialize model instances on backends, such as PostgreSQL, that support returning the IDs of the created records so that many-to-many relationships can be used on the new objects (:ticket:`27026`).
  • Fixed crash of django.views.static.serve() with show_indexes enabled (:ticket:`26973`).
  • Fixed ClearableFileInput to avoid the required HTML attribute when initial data exists (:ticket:`27037`).
  • Fixed annotations with database functions when combined with lookups on PostGIS (:ticket:`27014`).
  • Reallowed the {% for %} tag to unpack any iterable (:ticket:`27058`).
  • Made makemigrations skip inconsistent history checks on non-default databases if database routers aren’t in use or if no apps can be migrated to the database (:ticket:`27054`, :ticket:`27110`, :ticket:`27142`).
  • Removed duplicated managers in Model._meta.managers (:ticket:`27073`).
  • Fixed contrib.admindocs crash when a view is in a class, such as some of the admin views (:ticket:`27018`).
  • Reverted a few admin checks that checked field.many_to_many back to isinstance(field, models.ManyToManyField) since it turned out the checks weren’t suitable to be generalized like that (:ticket:`26998`).
  • Added the database alias to the InconsistentMigrationHistory message raised by makemigrations and migrate (:ticket:`27089`).
  • Fixed the creation of ContentType and Permission objects for models of applications without migrations when calling the migrate command with no migrations to apply (:ticket:`27044`).
  • Included the already applied migration state changes in the Apps instance provided to the pre_migrate signal receivers to allow ContentType renaming to be performed on model rename (:ticket:`27100`).
  • Reallowed subclassing UserCreationForm without USERNAME_FIELD in Meta.fields (:ticket:`27111`).
  • Fixed a regression in model forms where model fields with a default that didn’t appear in POST data no longer used the default (:ticket:`27039`).
