The proper Rails way to change your DB schema is using migrations,
not direct manipulation. Not only do you have a historical record of the
changes, it's easier to make the exact same change to a staging or
production environment, or back out the change in development.

Regardless, if you want a new field to appear in your views, etc. you
have to add that code yourself.
