This release includes the Watchman based reloader I worked on for about a year. It turns out auto reloading in Python is not an easy task, and I’m really nervous about edge cases I haven’t considered!

I’ve actually had a nightmare where everyone’s auto reloader was broken. While it never runs in production (right?!) it’s actually a pretty critical bit of Django that had not been touched in about 10 years!

Thank you! The new auto reloader is better by quite a bit. Many people have talked about doing this over the years, but nobody's been willing to do the grunt work and figure out all the corner cases, until you. Nice job!

Well nothing like shipping code and letting all your users test it! Congrats.
