STR:

1. Clone this repo
2. pip install https://github.com/django/django/archive/master.zip
3. ./manage.py migrate
4. cp testapp/models_new.py testapp/models.py
5. ./manage.py makemigrations --name broken_migration
6. ./manage.py migrate

Expected:

New migration is created/applied successfully.

Actual:

The new 0002_broken_migration.py migration incorrectly lists the RemoveField operation before the AlterUniqueTogether operation...

    operations = [
        migrations.RemoveField(
            model_name='push',
            name='foo',
        ),
        migrations.AlterUniqueTogether(
            name='push',
            unique_together={('repository', 'revision')},
        ),
    ]

Which results in an exception at step 6...

$ ./manage.py migrate
Operations to perform:
  Apply all migrations: admin, auth, contenttypes, sessions, testapp

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Additional notes:

• This affects both the SQLite backend and the MySQL backend (others not tested).
• If the ('repository', 'revision') entry in unique_together is omitted from both the original and new models, then the bug does not occur.
• At time of testing, django master was at revision 6d794fb76212bb8a62fe2cd97cff173054e1c626.
• This also affects Django 1.11.10.
• The above was using Python 3.6.2.
