 Provides a BitField like class (using a BigIntegerField) for your Django models.
 
 (If you're upgrading from a version before 1.2 the API has changed greatly and is backwards incompatible!)
 
+Why did we Fork?
+================
+
+We needed the ``get_set_bits()`` due to its usage throughout several other packages.
+It was easier to fork this one package and add it back in than change all the other
+packages.

 Requirements
 ============
 
-* Django >= 1.4
+* Django >= 1.8
