schemamigration using south and model field change

I have a model like this

class Task(models.Model):
   name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
   ...

class TaskForm(forms.ModelForm):
   class Meta:
        model = Task

Then,I added couple of fields to Task and did migration

python manage.py schemamigration myapp --initial python manage.py migrate myapp

Migration is successfully done.

Now,as an afterthought,I added a help_text to the model field

class Task(models.Model):
       name = models.CharField(max_length=100,help_text='choose a good one')
       ...

Do I have to do the schemamigration again?I think his change doesn't affect the database table.

You need not run migrate again.

Django do not save help_text to the databases, help_text exists in application level, Django render it to HTML.
