I have to update the auth.user records in a Django app to flip the "is_staff" bit for certain users. I could do this with a SQL script, but it'd be a lot more convenient if I could use a South data migration.
However, whenever I try to do manage.py datamigration auth whatever
South creates the migration in lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/auth/migrations
. Does this mean that it's impossible to use South data migrations to migrate user data? Or is there some sort of workaround I'm missing?
