How do I forward engineer my MySQL Model in the MySQL Workbench without losing the database's table rows?
I basically have a remote database with a users table with tuns of users in it. I also have a MySQL Model with the model of that remote database. In the model however, I have added 1 extra column to the users table. How do I add that column to the remote database without losing all users?
I have set a default value for the new column if that is a problem.
