 In general editing existing migrations is not a good idea: you will be creating extra work for yourself and your co-workers and cause major headaches if the existing version of the migration has already been run on production machines. Instead you should write a new migration that performs the changes you require. Editing a freshly generated migration that has not yet been committed to source control (or more generally which has not been propagated beyond your development machine) is relatively harmless.
 
+h4. Supported Types
+
+Active Record supports the following types:
+
+* +:primary_key+
+* +:string+
+* +:text+
+* +:integer+
+* +:float+
+* +:decimal+
+* +:datetime+
+* +:timestamp+
+* +:time+
+* +:date+
+* +:binary+
+* +:boolean+
+
+These will be mapped onto an appropriate underlying database type, for example with MySQL +:string+ is mapped to +VARCHAR(255)+. You can create columns of types not supported by Active Record when using the non-sexy syntax, for example
+
+<ruby>
+create_table :products do |t|
+  t.column :name, 'polygon', :null => false
+end
+</ruby>
+
+This may however hinder portability to other databases.

 h4. Changing Tables
 
 A close cousin of +create_table+ is +change_table+, used for changing existing tables. It is used in a similar fashion to +create_table+ but the object yielded to the block knows more tricks. For example
