Comment:

 The blog post is incorrect. A second save isn't needed. Also, that code
 won't work in Django 2.0 and later which removed support for
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.10/#direct-assignment-
 to-a-reverse-foreign-key-or-many-to-many-relation direct assignment to
 many to many relations].

 The blog post should use `foo.child.set(parts)` as described
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/db/examples/many_to_many/
 in the documentation].

 In the future, please use [wiki:TicketClosingReasons/UseSupportChannels
 our support channels] to ask "is it a bug?" questions.
