## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
+* Make it possible to execute migrations without a transaction even
+ if the database adapter supports DDL transactions.
+ Fixes #9483.
+
+ Example:
+
+ class ChangeEnum < ActiveRecord::Migration
+ self.disable_ddl_transaction!
+ def up
+ execute "ALTER TYPE model_size ADD VALUE 'new_value'"
+ end
+ end
+
+ *Yves Senn*
+
* Assigning "0.0" to a nullable numeric column does not make it dirty.
Fix #9034.
