schema_migrations records every applied step; the former migrate() is step 3, the baseline that builds the v0.4.1 schema and repairs older databases. Columns are only added when missing, so every other error now stops the start with a clear message instead of being swallowed, and the cleanup statements no longer run on each start. migrations/001_init.sql was never read and is gone.
