How can I tell what changes 'rake db:migrate' will apply before applying them?

ruby-on-rails rake dbmigrate

The command rake db:migrate will apply all relevant new migrations to a database and will list in the output the migrations that were applied.

I'd like to know in advance what migrations will be applied so as to note down a list of the changes that are expected in a production environment.

Is there an option I can use in conjunction to rake db:migrate that will show me what changes will be applied without actually applying them?
