migrations/ directory should not be in your .gitignore file. This directory contains database migration files which are crucial for the correct operation of your application, especially when working in a team or deploying to production. These files ensure that everyone working on the project, or any environment where the project runs, has the same database structure.In Wasp, when you make changes to your data model, new migration files are created in the
migrations/ directory. These files describe the changes to be made to the database structure. When you run wasp db migrate-dev, these migrations are applied to your database.If you have accidentally deleted your
migrations/ directory, you can recreate your migrations by running wasp db migrate-dev. However, be aware that this will create a new initial migration based on the current state of your data model, and any previous migration history will be lost.If you are switching from SQLite to PostgreSQL for production, you would need to delete the old migrations since they are SQLite migrations and can't be used with PostgreSQL. After setting up your new PostgreSQL database, you can run
wasp db migrate-dev to create a new initial migration for PostgreSQL.Sources:

MNo it shouldn't! It seems we had that as a mistake in the older version of OpenSaas. The newest one (released last week) should have that fixed.
ZCool all good!! Removed it! Thank ya!
