Description (last modified by )
The GeoDjango tutorial (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/contrib/gis/tutorial/) still instructs to create a db using the spatial template.
Since PostgresSQL 9.1, the preferred way is to use the postgis extension instead.
This brings up another issue: should makemigrations automatically add a CreateExtension operation? Is that even doable?
For now I've simply documented it, but it would be very handy to have it automatically.
