API documentation for RequestForgeryProtection not up-to-date

Reported by Patrick Daryll Glandien | May 8th, 2011 @ 04:53 PM

The API documentation on http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/RequestForgeryP... claims that protect_from_forgery would raise an ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken if the CSRF token isn't matched with the expectations.
Earlier this year in the commit https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/ae19e4141f27f80013c11e8b1da68... this behaviour was changed to resetting the session per default on an unverified request (instead of throwing the exception).
