@carltongibson I replaced the
DEFAULT_PROTOCOL
bump by a new setting instead as this bump breaks backward compatibility of__exact
lookups since the string representation of pickles changes.We could have documented it as a backward incompatible change but I feared some folks might blindly upgrade and end up with a database that is a mix of protocol 2 and 3 pickles which would break
__exact
and friends.By introducing this new
PICKLEFIELD_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL
setting it should be possible for users to upgrade to the version they seem for fit for their use case (even > 3) without breaking backward compatibility.
