In November 2025, Hpr developed a Database Column Backup System for the odoo/upgrade-util repository, focusing on safer data migration workflows. Using Python scripting and database management skills, Hpr implemented a utility in util/pg.py that creates backup columns with a '_upg_copy' suffix, preserving original data during schema updates or deprecations. This approach addressed the need for data integrity and rollback options during upgrades, reducing risk for both customers and the team. The work demonstrated careful migration tooling design and code hygiene, laying the foundation for future automated migration features and aligning with the broader objectives of the upgrade-util project.
