I've asked a similar question here and got quite a few answers.

There are quite a lot of ways of doing it, like manually doing the dumping and reloading with SQL, using fixtures or using one of the "emerging" schema-evolution packages for Django:

• Django Evolution
• South
• dmigrations (there's a DjangoCon video of a panel on schema-evolution in Django where these 3 solutions are discussed)
