Description

Use single quotes instead of double quotes in string if the string itself doesn't contain them. (​https://github.com/django/django/pull/7470#discussion_r90120125)
I haven't found this code style standard here ​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/coding-style/
We should probably add it?

The advice I've been giving is:

  • Use single quotes for strings, or a double quote if the the string contains a single quote. Don't bother refactoring existing code to confirm to this style.

I'll commit that if there's no other feedback.
