Old description:
> Makemigrations should highlight destructive and potentially destructive
> operations in the console output. We advise that makemigrations is only a
> code generator people sometimes apply them without looking. Highlighting
> dangerous operations in the output will make them stand out, and might
> help them notice issues before they blindly apply.
>
> For example:
>
> {{{
> $ ./manage.py makemigrations ...
> Migrations for 'some_app':
> some_app/migrations/0002_delete.py
> - Delete model SomeModel
> + Add model AnotherModel
> ~ Alter field X on Y
> }}}
>
> We can use `-` as a prefix for known destructive operations, `+` for
> "safe" operations and `~` for possibly-destructive operations, colour
> coded as red, green and yellow respectively.

New description:
Hey, so I'm totally new to this ('contributing to open source, not Django
or coding). Can I just take this? Seems easy enough for a first Pull
Request :)
