I have to concur with Max here. I know it sounds like a pain to migrate
schema changes BY HAND...but trust me, the tools don't help that much.
I'm a DBA in my day job (MS SQL, Oracle, and Postgresql primarily), and
the majority of the problems that occur when developers are trying to
do application migrations are from auto-DDL generation tools. And it
gets to be kind of a big deal when your have a public-facing
application or something...*grin*

That being said, I'm a big fan of automated assistance in this area,
but don't blindly rely on it. A place to start is "what objects are
different" between dev and prod (or ideally, testing. *grin*). Just
that list is helpful, as it'll keep you from missing something obvious.
Start with this list, and it'll make things simpler to deal with w/o
automagically breaking your nice production app!
