Thanks for mentioning. Nice logo! I have seen that and borrowed verbose sql logging. Nice gem, I see the differences.

My gem:

1. has more checks 2. has more migration helpers (renaming tables/columns, changing columns types, backfilling etc) 3. more flexible in terms of configuration 4. has background data migrations 5. does not disables wrapping migrations in a transaction, which can be inconvenient and dangerous
