Backwards migration with Django South

Question

Ok, so this seems like a really silly thing to ask, and I\'m sure I\'m missing something somewhere.

How do you perform a backwards migration using South on Django?

Answer 1

Just in case someone (like me) wondered how to migrate back from initial (0001):

django-admin.py migrate some_app zero

output:

Running migrations for some_app:
 - Migrating backwards to zero state.
 < some_app:0001_initial

"zero" is a special state before any migration.
