+CouchDB schema migration to Soledad 0.8.2
+=========================================
+
+Migrate couch database schema from <= 0.8.1 version to 0.8.2 version.
+
+
+ATTENTION!
+----------
+
+  - This script does not backup your data for you. Make sure you have a backup
+    copy of your databases before running this script!
+
+  - Make sure you turn off any service that might be writing to the couch
+    database before running this script.
+
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+To see what the script would do, run:
+
+    ./migrate.py
+
+To actually run the migration, add the --do-migrate command line option:
+
+    ./migrate.py --do-migrate
+
+See command line options:
+
+    ./migrate.py --help
+
+
+Log
+---
+
+If you don't pass a --log-file command line option, a log will be written to
+the `log/` folder.
+
+
+Differences between old and new couch schema
+--------------------------------------------
+
+The differences between old and new schemas are:
+
+    - Transaction metadata was previously stored inside each document, and we
+      used design doc view/list functions to retrieve that information. Now,
+      transaction metadata is stored in documents with special ids
+      (gen-0000000001 to gen-9999999999).
+
+    - Database replica config metadata was stored in a document called
+      "u1db_config", and now we store it in the "_local/config" document.
+
+    - Sync metadata was previously stored in documents with id
+      "u1db_sync_<source-replica-id>", and now are stored in
+      "_local/sync_<source-replica-id>".
+
+    - The new schema doesn't make use of any design documents.
+
+
+What does this script do
+------------------------
+
+- List all databases starting with "user-".
+- For each one, do:
+  - Check if it contains the old "u1db_config" document.
+  - If it doesn't, skip this db.
+  - Get the transaction log using the usual design doc view/list functions.
+  - Write a new "gen-X" document for each line on the transaction log.
+  - Get the "u1db_config" document, create a new one in "_local/config",
+    Delete the old one.
+  - List all "u1db_sync_X" documents, create new ones in "_local/sync_X",
+    delete the old ones.
+  - Delete unused design documents.
