What do I do when there is a new admin setting?

Question

I did an SVN pull, and now there is a new admin setting:

+EMAIL_FOOTER_TEXT = Setting(u'EMAIL_FOOTER_TEXT', '', EMAIL_SET, dict(
+label = _("Email Footer Text"),
+help_text = _("Email footer text, usually \\"CAN SPAM\\" compliance, or the physical address of the organization running the website. See <a href=\\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAN-SPAM_Act_of_2003\\">this Wikipedia article</a> for more info."),
+required=False))

What do I need to do to get this setting in my live OSQA sites, that I am upgrading? Is this setting automatically imported into the database? Or do I need to syncdb? Or what? I don't see a database migration.

Yes, it's automatically stored into the database, that is, if you change it, otherwise it will keep using the default until you do it.

No, what I mean is: If the database has already been created (because I am upgrading my codebase), will this row get added?

Yes, almost every day new settings are added :-)
