Comment (by Kevin Renskers):
Yeah the `.create` method doesn't work in my real world app since the real
model has relationships, and I'd also have to create those objects just to
create a dummy object in the migration.
It really does feel like a Django bug to me though. It only breaks using
SQLite, and only when adding a second migration. The initial adjustment of
the auto increment value works just fine using a proper documented query,
not via a workaround where we're creating a dummy object. But once I add a
second field to the model and a new migration is run, the auto increment
value is lost. Somehow it seems like the `migrations.AddField` operation
is doing the auto increment value, and only in SQLite.
I don't understand how this issue is located "in my custom code". I'm just
updating the auto increment using SQLite's command for that.
