17636	InMemoryUploadedFile object has no attribute _committed	Max Arnold	nobody	"Uploading any image to the following custom field leads to exception:

{{{
class ImageField(models.ImageField):
    __metaclass__ = models.SubfieldBase

}}}

This example is simplified as much as possible. In real project I want to store thumbnail directory path instead of full file path and use to_python/get_prep_value to do necessary transforms (according to the docs, SubfieldBase is required for to_python to work).

Traceback is below:

I spent a lot of time trying to understand complex file class hierarchy (FileField, FieldFile, FileDescriptor, UploadedFile, File, storage), but now I'm stuck and not really sure if this a Django bug or error on my side. Please sorry for noise if the latter."	Uncategorized	closed	File uploads/storage	1.3	Normal	invalid			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
