Description
My idea is to add the applied datetime value to the showmigrations command.
I've run into the case where I'm working on a branch that involves a number of migrations across various apps, but then have to switch to a different branch which has different migrations. It can be troublesome to determine which migrations are new and need to be rolled back. I've recently started looking at the django_migrations table sorted on the applied column to determine which I've run recently. This would make switching between branches involving conflicting migrations easier.
There was some brief discussion here.
I've initially implemented this so that it would only apply to the --list option with a --verbosity of 2 and above. Here's what I have so far. I wasn't sure how to handle backporting.
