Migration breaks on MacOs with Warning: Something went wrong while running sed #103

Description

@danmurray2k

Describe the bug

When running a migration with any option, I get the error

Warning: Something went wrong while running sed

multiple times, followed by database errors.

On dumping the sed commands it's trying to run, it looks like it's trying to use the -i flag, as I found doesn't work the same on MacOS, see the following SO thread.

Database errors result
