This is strange. On the latest 1.10 release with Python 3.5.2 if I have
this model, created in a fresh project with no non-default settings (other
than 'MEDIA_ROOT' set to a directory and a single app in INSTALLED_APPS
with this model):
{{{
class SomeModel(models.Model):
fd = models.FileField()
}}}
Then I run this in `manage.py shell`:
{{{
>>> s = SomeModel.objects.create(fd='test.txt')
>>> s.fd.size
5
>>> s.fd.closed
True
>>> s.fd.open('r')
>>> s.fd.read()
b'hello'
>>> s.fd.close()
>>> s.fd.open('r')
>>> s.fd.read()
'hello'
}}}
The first time a `FileField` is opened it appears to disregard the
encoding given and always returns bytes. However the second time it
correctly returns a string. If you re-fetch the model then the behavior
happens again.
