- beckingz 4y agoOh that's unfortunate. No thank you.
- krab 4y agoAt multiple companies I worked for, they concluded the backwards schema changes are not worth the risks and testing overhead. It's usually quick enough to issue a hotfix. With rollback, you always risk losing data - remember, you're doing it when something didn't go as you expected. What are the odds, the rollback will break something further? These were all Postgres shops, so schema changes within a transaction - that can be rolled back safely if it fails in the middle.
