I think *makemigrations* should never be used in production. You run it locally and then commit the migrations.
If it's a new production server you are deploying, I think you can delete all your migrations and then run *makemigrations* (locally) to create only initial migrations. But only if you are sure you're not going to need to go back to a previous migration version. But if it's not a new production server, just run *migrate* there after you commit your migrations locally and pull them from the server.
