27177	Migrations not found for app with same name as project	Paul Haesler	nobody	"django_admin creates a project subdirectory that has the same name as the project directory and is NOT an app.  However, there is nothing stopping you from creating a models.py file, migrations subdirectory, view.py, etc and adding to INSTALLED_APPS - and I can't find anything in the documentation suggesting that you should not do this.

Indeed this worked fine in 1.9.  But having upgraded to 1.10, the commands ""makemigration"", ""migrate"", ""showmigrations"", etc. no longer detect migrations in this project app:  Makemigrations doesn't pick up changes to models in that app; showmigrations will not list any migrations from that app; and migrate will not run migrations from that app.

Either this is a bug, or the documentation should state that upgrading the project subdirectory to an app is not supported."	Bug	closed	Database layer (models, ORM)	1.10	Normal	worksforme	migrations project app		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
