The down migration for ClearEstimatedHoursOnParentIssues will fail on MySQL (5.6) with the following message:

Mysql2::Error: You can't specify target table 'issues' for update in FROM clause: UPDATE `issues` SET estimated_hours = (SELECT SUM(leaves.estimated_hours) FROM issues leaves WHERE leaves.root_id = issues.root_id AND leaves.lft > issues.lft AND leaves.rgt < issues.rgt AND leaves.rgt = leaves.lft + 1) WHERE (rgt > lft + 1)

Our quick fix was to explicitly make a temp table instead of referencing the issues table in the subquery:
