With Django 2.0, a `RenameField` on a model which has a reverse many to many relationship raises an exception: `AttributeError: 'ManyToManyRel' object has no attribute 'field_name'`. This is a regression in Django 2.0: the same migration with Django 1.11 terminates successfully Below the code and the commands to reproduce the problem: {{{ # myapp/models.py from django.db import models class ModelA(models.Model): new_name = models.IntegerField() class ModelB(models.Model): model_as = models.ManyToManyField('ModelA') # myapp/migrations/0001_initial.py from django.db import migrations, models class Migration(migrations.Migration): initial = True dependencies = [ ] operations = [ migrations.CreateModel( name='ModelA', fields=[ ('id', models.AutoField(auto_created=True, primary_key=True, serialize=False, verbose_name='ID')), ('old_name', models.IntegerField()), ], ), migrations.CreateModel( name='ModelB', fields=[ ('id', models.AutoField(auto_created=True, primary_key=True, serialize=False, verbose_name='ID')), ('model_as', models.ManyToManyField(to='myapp.ModelA')), ], ), ] # myapp/migrations/0002_auto_20171204_1012.py from django.db import migrations class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ('myapp', '0001_initial'), ] operations = [ migrations.RenameField( model_name='modela', old_name='old_name', new_name='new_name', ), ] $ ./manage.py migrate Operations to perform: Apply all migrations: admin, auth, contenttypes, myapp, sessions Running migrations: Applying contenttypes.0001_initial...
