title: Adding fields to an already existing database for Django (version < 1.7)
body: <p>I'm using Django ( &lt; v1.7), with SQLite3 as the database engine.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to add a new field to an already existing model's class. This class already has data associated to it.</p>
  
  <p><code>manage.py syncdb</code> is not adding the new fields to the db.</p>
  
  <p>Is there was a way to:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Add the new Field to the already existing class, and make sure a db entry is allocated to it?</p></li>
  <li><p>Populate this new field with an empty string for all the already existing db entries?</p></li>
  </ol>
