Here, Here.

And the reason we normally want to go back in time, is when we are
reintroducing a feature that we previously switched off.

Ie: Product Manager says, don't need xyz anymore, we remove the feature.
Customer says, hey we were using that :)

Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Version Controlling a Database


In my view, rolling back database schema changes on a production
database is a sure sign of something  wrong with your development
process that allows poorly thought out database changes that end up in
production. This is because you need to consider the data that's been
added, updated or deleted since the schema was updated.

I agree on the value of using version control for the code changes the
schema because it allows the capture of all changes made by multiple
developers and to handle conflicts in concurrent changes.
