The docs do not mention best practices of how to migrate data between two
external apps (whose migrations you do not control). I attempted to solve
this on my own and ran into issues which required (in the interest of
time) ugly solutions.
For now I'm assuming the preferred method just needs to be documented (I
clearly have no idea what this is) and that there is not some fundamental
bug in the migrations system that prevents a reasonable approach.
I was directed to open a ticket after discussing this issue on the users
mailing list https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-
users/SPXOBZN0b5g/_8ibzrqWE1QJ
This post contains specific details of the problem as well as the flawed
approach I took. Appreciate any feedback concerning best practices for
this problem type.
