## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
+* The `select` method (select tag) forces :include_blank if `required` is true and
+ `display size` is one and `multiple` is not true. *Angelo Capilleri*

* Copy literal route constraints to defaults so that url generation know about them.
The copied constraints are `:protocol`, `:subdomain`, `:domain`, `:host` and `:port`.
