Separate code from configuration in Django settings

[hackdna]

two types of settings

application-specific configuration (DEBUG, STATICFILE_DIRS, INSTALLED_APPS) - in git:

settings/
     base.py
     development.py
     production.py

set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to dev or prod settings:
in /etc/apache2/sites-available/001-refinery.conf via SetEnv in vhost to pick up in wsgi.py

instance-specific configuration (passwords, keys, STATIC_ROOT, MEDIA_ROOT, TIME_ZONE, etc) - outside git:
config.json
