-# This puts us in an uneasy situation in which if we remove upstream's

-# with their already-ran migration.
-#
-# On the other hand, if we keep upstream's migration and remove our own,
-# any current glitch-soc user will have a conflict during migration.
-#
-# For lack of a better solution, as those migrations are indeed identical,
-# we decided monkey-patching Rails' Migrator to completely ignore the duplicate,
-# keeping only the one that has run, or an arbitrary one.
