Django 1.2.2 is a recommended upgrade for any +development or deployment currently using or targeting Django 1.2. + +For full details on the new features, backwards incompatibilities, and +deprecated features in the 1.2 branch, see the :doc:`/releases/1.2`. + +One new feature +=============== + +Ordinarily, a point release would not include new features, but in the +case of Django 1.2.2, we have made an exception to this rule. + +In order to test a bug fix that forms part of the 1.2.2 release, it +was necessary to add a feature -- the ``enforce_csrf_checks`` flag -- +to the :mod:`test client `. This flag forces +the test client to perform full CSRF checks on forms. The default +behavior of the test client hasn't changed, but if you want to do +CSRF checks with the test client, it is now possible to do so.
