8641	File.save documentation does not mention that contents must be a Django file object	pauldwaite	nobody	"The documentation for the revised FileField (http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/files/) documents the replacement for {{{save_FOO_file}}}, {{{File.save(name, content, save=True)}}}.

However, as far as I can tell from testing Beta 2, the content to be saved can no longer be a string. It must be an instance of the new Django File class (or at least an object that has a {{{chunks}}} attribute).

The documentation makes no mention of this."		closed	Documentation	dev		fixed			Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
