#1559 closed defect (duplicate)

[patch]Model instance __init__ ignores defaults if kwargs is empty

Description

Currently, django.core.meta.method_init does not fill in default values if no keyword arguments are passed. This makes it impossible to create instances of models using defaults for all fields. See http://django.pastebin.com/630262 for an example.

Attached is a trivial patch that always goes through fields setting defaults if no kwarg is specified.
