I've been pretty happy with https://bitbucket.org/liamstask/goose/ to solve this for us. It's an alternate that you can specify different, custom environments and compiles to an executable (not just a library).

Honest question: what's better about Migrate that I should look at? I read the godoc and the repo, and didn't see anything new (compared to Goose).

Looks good.

I have written a simple tool to manage database fixtures for Go. It's similar to Django's fixtures.

Might be relevant for some people. Both migrations and fixtures are a needed thing for most projects.
