+# There was a bug that caused a duplicate pacticipant to be created

+# It was fixed in be24a8ad650f0ed49993283b22ba1d1a744fb3e8.
+# This migration deletes any pacticipants with null names that are not referenced by any other rows,
+# or assigns a name if the pacticipant is referenced so that it can be deleted through the API
+# (I can't think of a reason why a pacticipant with a null name should be referenced, but better to be safe than sorry).
+# The "find tables that reference pacticipants" logic is done dynamically because Pactflow has extra tables not in the OSS.
+
+# Query each table that references the pacticipants table to determine
+# if there are any rows in it that reference the pacticipant with the specified ID.
