MechaCat02 23a7d89a89 fix(migrations): renumber feed-view migration 006 → 010
The new v_feed-rewrite migration collided with the existing 006_user_pin_lockout
(versions must be unique). Verified against a fresh Postgres: all migrations
001–010 now apply cleanly on startup.

Migrations

SQLx-managed Postgres migrations. Each NNN_topic.up.sql has a matching NNN_topic.down.sql. Run by sqlx::migrate!() at app start.

Rules

  1. Never edit a shipped migration. If a column needs to change or a fix needs to land, write a new migration. Production has already applied the old one and SQLx tracks each by checksum — editing in place will fail to apply on existing databases.
  2. Always pair .up.sql with a .down.sql. Reverts may not be perfect (data loss is sometimes unavoidable) but the file must exist and do the best it can.
  3. Prefer additive changes. New columns, new tables, new keys in config. Drop / rename only when there is no alternative.
  4. No business logic in migrations. Schema + seeds only. Anything that needs Rust code goes in a one-off binary, not a migration file.
  5. One concern per migration. Easier to revert. Easier to read in git log.

Numbering

Zero-padded three digits, monotonically increasing. The next free number lives at the bottom of the directory listing — pick that.

Seed-only migrations

When you only need to add config keys (feature flags, defaults), use INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING so existing operator overrides survive. See 009_feature_toggles.up.sql for the canonical shape.
