Merge branch 'master' into adequaterecord
* master: (70 commits) [ci skip] Added link to ruby-lang.org installation. Use the index on hidden field `collection_check_boxes` respects `:index` option for the hidden filed name. docs, double meaning of `serialize` argument. Closes #14284. Just call read_attribute, no need to use `send`. - Fix lingering reference to `:text` instead of the newer `:plain` - Section references `form_tag` instead of the `form_for` used in the example again, read_attribute is public, so just call it read_attribute is public, so we should just call it Disable assest cache store in docs [ci skip] Make counter cache decrementation on destroy idempotent Write the failing test case for concurrent counter cache [ci skip] Use plain underscore instead of "\_". Update documentation to use Rails.application instead Add a changelog entry for #14546 [ci skip] Move tests for deep_dup and duplicable to object directory Missing 'are' in note - [ci skip] CollectionHelpers now accepts a readonly option Fix a few typos [ci skip] Bundle tzinfo-data on :x64_mingw (64-bit Ruby on Windows). don't bother with an offset if the offset is zero ...

If you create a `has_and_belongs_to_many` association, you need to explicitly create the joining table. Unless the name of the join table is explicitly specified by using the `:join_table` option, Active Record creates the name by using the lexical order of the class names. So a join between customer and order models will give the default join table name of "customers_orders" because "c" outranks "o" in lexical ordering.
-WARNING: The precedence between model names is calculated using the `<` operator for `String`. This means that if the strings are of different lengths, and the strings are equal when compared up to the shortest length, then the longer string is considered of higher lexical precedence than the shorter one. For example, one would expect the tables "paper\_boxes" and "papers" to generate a join table name of "papers\_paper\_boxes" because of the length of the name "paper\_boxes", but it in fact generates a join table name of "paper\_boxes\_papers" (because the underscore '\_' is lexicographically _less_ than 's' in common encodings).

Whatever the name, you must manually generate the join table with an appropriate migration. For example, consider these associations:
