How to delete migration files in Rails 3

I would like to remove/delete a migration file. How would I go about doing that? I know there are similar questions on here but as an update, is there a better way than doing script/destroy?

Also, should I do a db:reset or db:drop if I remove/delete a migration?

I usually:

1. Perform a rake db:migrate VERSION=XXX on all environments, to the version before the one I want to delete.
2. Delete the migration file manually.
3. If there are pending migrations (i.e., the migration I removed was not the last one), I just perform a new rake db:migrate again.

If your application is already on production or staging, it's safer to just write another migration that destroys your table or columns.

Another great reference for migrations is: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/migrations.html

Another way to delete the migration:

$ rails d migration SameMigrationNameAsUsedToGenerate

Use it before rake db:migrate is executed because changes in database will stay forever :) - or remove changes in Database manually
