    That doesn't make much sense. You only need to care about data migrations in production. In development, you can wipe/recreate the database any time you want. And it is not hard to add up simple migration if you change the database a little. It will accumulate over time. Commented Oct 31, 2013 at 7:29
  • @Euphoric - One of the points to agile development it dt deploy early and often. Databases complicate that. It's true that you can revise your schema as often as you want between deployments, but if you're always going to have difficulty when you get to the point of updating prod.
