The
USER_MODELsetting appears very useful, but in the 2.0.0 release, the original tables are created withuseras a ForeignKey tosettings.AUTH_USER_MODEL.This creates several problems, including that
./manage.py makemigrationswill create a migration inpush_notificationsthat can't be committed or deployed if the project was installed from pypi.This PR edits old migrations to use
USER_MODELdirectly. For new users, this seems to honor the intention of the feature. For existing users, they should expect trouble if they ever change theUSER_MODELorAUTH_USER_MODELsettings, with or without this patch.
