First, sorry by my english.

South is excellent to work with version control.
Consider the following:
So far the project django-robots is correct. But if tomorrow you need to delete a field from some model and add another non-null and without a default
Syncdb not matter. Syncdb does exclusion processes. And it does not add a default on new fields.
When I download the application, of course Databaseerror throws an exception, since I am the fields that you have added to my bank ever created.
With the South, I give a ready and migrate.

I hope you understand.
