  * @deprecated This used to generated the hub id. It got replaced by <code>V3__Initialize_Settings.sql</code>, though. Despite being dead code,
  * this class must remain present in order for Flyway to work correctly on existing installations. May be removed when we start with a new <a href="https://flywaydb.org/documentation/concepts/baselinemigrations">baseline migration</a>
