The auth doc was a single page which had grown unwieldy.
This refactor split and grouped the content into sub-topics.
Additional corrections and cleanups were made along the way.
This makes it easier to make a ModelBackend-compliant (with regards to
permissions) User model.
Thanks to cdestigter for the report about the relationship between
ModelBackend and permissions, and to the many users on django-dev that
contributed to the discussion about mixins.
This documents the behavior introduced by cc337a74, which is BACKWARDS
INCOMPATIBLE for any attempt to invoke a method on a manager using the
abstract class as the calling class (e.g., AbstractBase.objects.do_something())
Thanks to mhsparks for the report.
* Prevented stale session files from being loaded
* Added removal of stale session files in django-admin.py clearsessions
Thanks ej for the report, crodjer and Elvard for their inputs.
This change allows for cleaner tests: we can test the exact output.
Refs #18194: this change makes it possible to compute session expiry
dates at times other than when the session is saved.
Fixed #18458: the existence of the `modification` kwarg implies that you
must pass it to get_expiry_age/date if you call these functions outside
of a short request - response cycle (the intended use case).
Done for consistency with Q() expressions and QuerySet combining. This
will allow usage of '&' and '|' as boolean logical operators in the
future. Refs #16211.
This is especially needed to compare XML when hash randomization
is on, as attribute order may vary. Refs #17758, #19038.
Thanks Taylor Mitchell for the initial patch, and Ian Clelland for
review and cleanup.
It appears that our infamous villain, Significant Whitespace,
has struck again.
In this episode, little Timmy finds himself trapped in a
code well. He need not despair, however, as Indentation Man
has heard his cries for help and sprung into action.
With his feline helper, Octocat, at his side, Indentation Man
races to the scene, flings open a web-based code editor, and with
terrific aplomb, frees Timmy to be the documentation he always
wanted to be.
Once again Goodness has prevailed. In the fight for readable
documentation, no stray whitespace will ever be able to
withstand the str.strip()ing nature of....INDENTATION MAN.
Thanks to the many people that contributed to the development and review of
this patch, including (but not limited to) Jacob Kaplan-Moss, Anssi
Kääriäinen, Ramiro Morales, Preston Holmes, Josh Ourisman, Thomas Sutton,
and Roger Barnes, as well as the many, many people who have contributed to
the design discussion around this ticket over many years.

The previously-referenced wiki page documents backwards-incompatible
changes from .96 to 1.0. Changed that referece to point to current
in-development release notes, which is where such changes are now
documented.
This rewrites the entire example to use the same DB names throughout,
and also is hopefully a bit more sensibly described. Additionally, the
missing import of the random module for choosing a read slave is
included in the example now.
