Backwards-incompatible changes in 1.3
=====================================
FileField no longer deletes files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In earlier Django versions, when a model instance containing a
:class:`~django.db.models.FileField` was deleted,
:class:`~django.db.models.FileField` took it upon itself to also delete the
file from the backend storage. This opened the door to several data-loss
scenarios, including rolled-back transactions and fields on different models
referencing the same file. In Django 1.3, :class:`~django.db.models.FileField`
will never delete files from the backend storage. If you need cleanup of
orphaned files, you'll need to handle it yourself (for instance, with a custom
management command that can be run manually or scheduled to run periodically
via e.g. cron).
