The answer is “Do not delete migration files”. To understand why we shouldn’t delete migration files, you need to understand how migration works in frameworks. Migration files are the history of your database. One migration file is created based on the migration files created in the past. Deleting migration files means losing your history. This historical info is recorded in the django_migrations table in your database. if you delete migration files, you will get dependency errors. So Don’t try to lose your history by deleting your migration files.
