Thanks tinodb for the report.
2013-05-24Link to active fork for ODBC backendPaul Tax
It took me quite some time to find if and where the ODBC backend was maintained. I found (on djangoproject.com): http://code.google.com/p/django-pyodbc/ (last commit about 3 years ago) then: https://github.com/avidal/django-pyodbc avidal fork. then: https://github.com/aurorasoftware/django-pyodbc/ aurorasoftware version which has avidal improvements merged. Avidals version now links to https://github.com/aurorasoftware/django-pyodbc/ which is also the version installed through PIP.
2013-05-09Fixed #20215 -- Disabled persistent connections by default.Aymeric Augustin
2013-05-08Marked tests of BinaryFields as expected failures on MySQL and Python 3.Aymeric Augustin
Current ports of MySQLdb are very buggy in this area.
2013-05-08Fixed #20025 -- Pointed to a MySQLdb fork for Python 3.Aymeric Augustin
Made a few minor compatibility adjustments.
2013-04-20Adapted uses of versionchanged/versionadded to the new form.Juan Catalano
Refs #20104.
2013-03-18Added warn note to docs about MySQL issues with 0000-00-00 date stringsJuan Catalano
MySQL accepts 0000-00-00 as a valid date but MySQLdb converts those values into None. So there will be problems for instance if trying to transport the data using dumpdata/loaddata. This patch refs #6642 that has been closed as wontfix since this is a particular problem of MySQL.
2013-03-18Fixed #19968 -- Dropped support for PostgreSQL < 8.4.Aymeric Augustin
2013-03-11Added support for savepoints in SQLite.Aymeric Augustin
Technically speaking they aren't usable yet.
2013-03-11Enabled database-level autocommit for all backends.Aymeric Augustin
This is mostly a documentation change. It has the same backwards-incompatibility consequences as those described for PostgreSQL in a previous commit.
2013-03-02Fixed #18130 -- Made the isolation level configurable on PostgreSQL.Aymeric Augustin
Thanks limscoder for the report and niwi for the draft patch.

Thanks philipn for the report and mateusgondim for the patch.
2012-08-07[py3] Ported django.utils.encoding.Aymeric Augustin
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under Python 2 for backwards compatibility). * Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes. * Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3 and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible). Thus smart_str always returns a str objects. * Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3 want a str.

Thanks Florian Apolloner for the patch.
2012-04-29Prevent Oracle from changing field.null to TrueAnssi Kääriäinen
Fixed #17957 -- when using Oracle and character fields, the fields were set null = True to ease the handling of empty strings. This caused problems when using multiple databases from different vendors, or when the character field happened to be also a primary key. The handling was changed so that NOT NULL is not emitted on Oracle even if field.null = False, and field.null is not touched otherwise. Thanks to bhuztez for the report, ramiro for triaging & comments, ikelly for the patch and alex for reviewing.

2011-08-26Clarify the documentation around SQLite and case-sensitive string matching.Malcolm Tredinnick
This was still causing some confusion, so I rewrote the section in the database notes to encompass both substring matching and non-ASCII case-insensitive equality checks, as well as putting in a stronger callout on the "contains" filter.
