 I'm changing a data model that had a
 {{{
 source_id = CharField()
 }}}
 field to a
 {{{
 source_resolution = ForeignKey(CommitteeResolution, db_column='source_id',
 to_field='source_id')
 }}}
 so that my database schema remains the same, but now the column is a
 foreign key reference to another table.

 I've adjusted the migrations file manually to avoid dropping/re-creating
 columns.  The migration looks like this now:
 {{{
     operations = [
         migrations.AlterField(
             model_name='suggestion',
             name='source_id',
             field=models.ForeignKey(db_column=b'source_id',
 to_field=b'source_id', to='mps_v2.CommitteeResolution'),
             preserve_default=False,
         ),
         migrations.RenameField(
             model_name='suggestion',
             old_name='source_id',
             new_name='source_resolution',
         ),
         migrations.AlterUniqueTogether(
             name='suggestion',
             unique_together=set([('source_resolution', 'source_index')]),
         ),
     ]
 }}}

 The forward migration is exactly as I expect it to be:

 {{{
 $ django-admin sqlmigrate mps_v2 0029
 BEGIN;
 ALTER TABLE `mps_v2_suggestion` ADD CONSTRAINT
 `D58bb2cf0b1407c8c24fa06b0cc34f38` FOREIGN KEY (`source_id`) REFERENCES
 `mps_v2_committeeresolution` (`source_id`);

 COMMIT;
 }}}

 I expect the reverse migration to drop the constraint.

 It doesn't:

 {{{
 $ django-admin sqlmigrate mps_v2 0029 --backwards
 }}}

 (there's no output).
