Add an usage example on how to pass a callable to the `Field.initial` in the docs.

Let's have an example that makes a bit more sense.
I can only think of date/time examples - are there an other obvious use cases?

I think the date/time example is fine. Other use cases are possible but I think they'll make it more difficult to the reader to understand. Also, the example from the official Django docs[1] uses date/time too.

Hello @tomchristie
I've updated the docs. May you take a look?
Just like regular Django fields, the example adopted uses a `datetiume.date.today` to illustrate the functionality.
|
Looking good. @tomchristie any further comments? |
|
👍 Yup! |
|
@xordoquy - I'm a bit unclear on branching plans - should we merge this to master and re-milestone as 3.3.0? |
|
@tomchristie will take some time tomorrow to add more information about branching. |
|
@xordoquy ace, thanks! |
