    Not sure if this is considered a bug, but the behavior is surprising enough that I think it's worth changing. When using timestamped migration version numbers, ...

  • Josh Susser
    Josh Susser commented at 7:27 PM

1774 refactor #try to use inheritance was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Josh Susser
    Josh Susser commented at 2:57 AM

    Josh Susser created the ticket at 5:41 AM

    This is a tiny patch to improve the readability and performance of #validates_associated in ActiveRecord. The obscure use of #inject is replaces by #collect and...
