Field's default value in model isn't passed to SQL

[Michal Ludvig <michal@…>]

I have a model roughly like this:

class Foo(models.Model):
    blah = models.BooleanField(default=True)

I expect "syncdb" to create SQL field with the default value set (this is for mysql):

`blah` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',

Unfortunately it doesn't, the "DEFAULT '1'" part is missing. Apparently there is no checking for 'field.default' value in django/core/management.py:_get_sql_model_create()

Attached patch adds this functionality.

A couple things:

• If we are going to add this, it needs to be for more than just BooleanField.
• Since default values can be given callables, the default value might not be determined until runtime. You would not want the default value specified at the database level in this case.

Dupe of #470 (which has been wontfixed twice so far).
