Ruby is the language that supports Rails, so its forum is less well qualified to cover all the juicy Railsey details. Do not take the following answer as canon so much as me showing off. Do not post your followup question here.

Look up "Rails migrations". You should never clone a database just to add a field. Oracle DBAs do that. An ActiveRecord migration will insert the field without affecting the existing data.
