+## Rails 5.0.0.beta1 (December 18, 2015) ##
+
+* No changes.
+
+
+* Deprecate `redirect_to :back` in favor of `redirect_back`, which accepts a
+ required `fallback_location` argument, thus eliminating the possibility of a
+ `RedirectBackError`.
+
+ *Derek Prior*
+
+* Add `redirect_back` method to `ActionController::Redirecting` to provide a
+ way to safely redirect to the `HTTP_REFERER` if it is present, falling back
+ to a provided redirect otherwise.
+
+ *Derek Prior*
+
+* `ActionController::TestCase` will be moved to it's own gem in Rails 5.1
+
+ With the speed improvements made to `ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest` we no
+ longer need to keep two separate code bases for testing controllers. In
+ Rails 5.1 `ActionController::TestCase` will be deprecated and moved into a
+ gem outside of Rails source.
+
+ This is a documentation deprecation so that going forward so new tests will use
+ `ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest` instead of `ActionController::TestCase`.
+
+ *Eileen M. Uchitelle*
+
+* Add a `response_format` option to `ActionDispatch::DebugExceptions`
+ to configure the format of the response when errors occur in
+ development mode.
+
+ If `response_format` is `:default` the debug info will be rendered
+ in an HTML page. In the other hand, if the provided value is `:api`
+ the debug info will be rendered in the original response format.
+
+ *Jorge Bejar*
+
+* Change the `protect_from_forgery` prepend default to `false`
+
+ Per this comment
+ https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/18334#issuecomment-69234050 we want
+ `protect_from_forgery` to default to `prepend: false`.
+
+ `protect_from_forgery` will now be insterted into the callback chain at the
+ point it is called in your application. This is useful for cases where you
+ want to `protect_from_forgery` after you perform required authentication
+ callbacks or other callbacks that are required to run after forgery protection.
+
+ If you want `protect_from_forgery` callbacks to always run first, regardless of
+ position they are called in your application then you can add `prepend: true`
+ to your `protect_from_forgery` call.
+
+ Example:
+
+ ```ruby
+ protect_from_forgery prepend: true
+ ```
+
+ *Eileen M. Uchitelle*
+
+* In url_for, never append a question mark to the URL when the query string
+ is empty anyway. (It used to do that when called like `url_for(controller:
+ 'x', action: 'y', q: {})`.)
+
+ *Paul Grayson*
+
+* Catch invalid UTF-8 querystring values and respond with BadRequest
+
+ Check querystring params for invalid UTF-8 characters, and raise an
+ ActionController::BadRequest error if present. Previously these strings
+ would typically trigger errors further down the stack.
+
+ *Grey Baker*
+
+* Parse RSS/ATOM responses as XML, not HTML.
+
+ *Alexander Kaupanin*
+
+* Show helpful message in `BadRequest` exceptions due to invalid path
+ parameter encodings.
+
+ Fixes #21923.
+
+ *Agis Anastasopoulos*
+
+* Add the ability of returning arbitrary headers to ActionDispatch::Static
+
+ Now ActionDispatch::Static can accept HTTP headers so that developers
+ will have control of returning arbitrary headers like
+ 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' when a response is delivered. They can be
+ configured with `#config`:
+
+ config.public_file_server.headers = {
+ "Cache-Control" => "public, max-age=60",
+ "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" => "http://rubyonrails.org"
+ }
+
+ *Yuki Nishijima*
+
+* Allow multiple `root` routes in same scope level. Example:
+
+ ```ruby
+ root 'blog#show', constraints: ->(req) { Hostname.blog_site?(req.host) }
+ root 'landing#show'
+ ```
+ *Rafael Sales*
+
+* Fix regression in mounted engine named routes generation for app deployed to
+ a subdirectory. `relative_url_root` was prepended to the path twice (e.g.
+ "/subdir/subdir/engine_path" instead of "/subdir/engine_path")
+
+ Fixes #20920. Fixes #21459.
+
+ *Matthew Erhard*
+
+* ActionDispatch::Response#new no longer applies default headers. If you want
+ default headers applied to the response object, then call
+ `ActionDispatch::Response.create`. This change only impacts people who are
+ directly constructing an `ActionDispatch::Response` object.
+
+* Accessing mime types via constants like `Mime::HTML` is deprecated. Please
+ change code like this:
+
+ Mime::HTML
+
+ To this:
+
+ Mime[:html]
+
+ This change is so that Rails will not manage a list of constants, and fixes
+ an issue where if a type isn't registered you could possibly get the wrong
+ object.
+
+ `Mime[:html]` is available in older versions of Rails, too, so you can
+ safely change libraries and plugins and maintain compatibility with
+ multiple versions of Rails.
+
+* `url_for` does not modify its arguments when generating polymorphic URLs.
+
+ *Bernerd Schaefer*
+
+* Make it easier to opt in to `config.force_ssl` and `config.ssl_options` by
+ making them less dangerous to try and easier to disable.
+
+ SSL redirect:
+ * Move `:host` and `:port` options within `redirect: { … }`. Deprecate.
+ * Introduce `:status` and `:body` to customize the redirect response.
+ The 301 permanent default makes it difficult to test the redirect and
+ back out of it since browsers remember the 301. Test with a 302 or 307
+ instead, then switch to 301 once you're confident that all is well.
+
+ HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS):
+ * Shorter max-age. Shorten the default max-age from 1 year to 180 days,
+ the low end for https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ grading and greater
+ than the 18-week minimum to qualify for browser preload lists.
+ * Disabling HSTS. Setting `hsts: false` now sets `hsts { expires: 0 }`
+ instead of omitting the header. Omitting does nothing to disable HSTS
+ since browsers hang on to your previous settings until they expire.
+ Sending `{ hsts: { expires: 0 }}` flushes out old browser settings and
+ actually disables HSTS:
+ http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6797#section-6.1.1
+ * HSTS Preload. Introduce `preload: true` to set the `preload` flag,
+ indicating that your site may be included in browser preload lists,
+ including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE11, and Edge. Submit your site:
+ https://hstspreload.appspot.com
+
+ *Jeremy Daer*
+
+* Update `ActionController::TestSession#fetch` to behave more like
+ `ActionDispatch::Request::Session#fetch` when using non-string keys.
+
+ *Jeremy Friesen*
+
+* Using strings or symbols for middleware class names is deprecated. Convert
+ things like this:
+
+ middleware.use "Foo::Bar"
+
+ to this:
+
+ middleware.use Foo::Bar
+
+* ActionController::TestSession now accepts a default value as well as
+ a block for generating a default value based off the key provided.
+
+ This fixes calls to session#fetch in ApplicationController instances that
+ take more two arguments or a block from raising `ArgumentError: wrong
+ number of arguments (2 for 1)` when performing controller tests.
+
+ *Matthew Gerrior*
+
+* Fix `ActionController::Parameters#fetch` overwriting `KeyError` returned by
+ default block.
+
+ *Jonas Schuber Erlandsson*, *Roque Pinel*
+
+* `ActionController::Parameters` no longer inherits from
+ `HashWithIndifferentAccess`
+
+ Inheriting from `HashWithIndifferentAccess` allowed users to call any
+ enumerable methods on `Parameters` object, resulting in a risk of losing the
+ `permitted?` status or even getting back a pure `Hash` object instead of
+ a `Parameters` object with proper sanitization.
+
+ By not inheriting from `HashWithIndifferentAccess`, we are able to make
+ sure that all methods that are defined in `Parameters` object will return
+ a proper `Parameters` object with a correct `permitted?` flag.
+
+ *Prem Sichanugrist*
+
+* Replaced `ActiveSupport::Concurrency::Latch` with `Concurrent::CountDownLatch`
+ from the concurrent-ruby gem.
+
+ *Jerry D'Antonio*
+
+* Add ability to filter parameters based on parent keys.
+
+ # matches {credit_card: {code: "xxxx"}}
+ # doesn't match {file: { code: "xxxx"}}
+ config.filter_parameters += [ "credit_card.code" ]
+
+ See #13897.
+
+ *Guillaume Malette*
+
+* Deprecate passing first parameter as `Hash` and default status code for `head` method.
+
+ *Mehmet Emin İNAÇ*
+
+* Adds`Rack::Utils::ParameterTypeError` and `Rack::Utils::InvalidParameterError`
+ to the rescue_responses hash in `ExceptionWrapper` (Rack recommends
+ integrators serve 400s for both of these).
+
+ *Grey Baker*
+
+* Add support for API only apps.
+ ActionController::API is added as a replacement of
+ ActionController::Base for this kind of applications.
+
+ *Santiago Pastorino & Jorge Bejar*
+
+* Remove `assigns` and `assert_template`. Both methods have been extracted
+ into a gem at https://github.com/rails/rails-controller-testing.
+
+ See #18950.
+
+ *Alan Guo Xiang Tan*
+
+* `FileHandler` and `Static` middleware initializers accept `index` argument
+ to configure the directory index file name. Defaults to `index` (as in
+ `index.html`).
+
+ See #20017.
+
+ *Eliot Sykes*
+
+* Deprecate `:nothing` option for `render` method.
+
+ *Mehmet Emin İNAÇ*
+
+* Fix `rake routes` not showing the right format when
+ nesting multiple routes.
+
+ See #18373.
+
+ *Ravil Bayramgalin*
+
+* Add ability to override default form builder for a controller.
+
+ class AdminController < ApplicationController
+ default_form_builder AdminFormBuilder
+ end
+
+ *Kevin McPhillips*
+
+* For actions with no corresponding templates, render `head :no_content`
+ instead of raising an error. This allows for slimmer API controller
+ methods that simply work, without needing further instructions.
+
+ See #19036.
+
+ *Stephen Bussey*
+
+* Provide friendlier access to request variants.
+
+ request.variant = :phone
+ request.variant.phone? # true
+ request.variant.tablet? # false
+
+ request.variant = [:phone, :tablet]
+ request.variant.phone? # true
+ request.variant.desktop? # false
+ request.variant.any?(:phone, :desktop) # true
+ request.variant.any?(:desktop, :watch) # false
+
+ *George Claghorn*
+
+* Fix regression where a gzip file response would have a Content-type,
+ even when it was a 304 status code.
+
+ See #19271.
+
+ *Kohei Suzuki*
+
+* Fix handling of empty `X_FORWARDED_HOST` header in `raw_host_with_port`.
+
+ Previously, an empty `X_FORWARDED_HOST` header would cause
+ `Actiondispatch::Http:URL.raw_host_with_port` to return `nil`, causing
+ `Actiondispatch::Http:URL.host` to raise a `NoMethodError`.
+
+ *Adam Forsyth*
+
+* Allow `Bearer` as token-keyword in `Authorization-Header`.
+
+ Aditionally to `Token`, the keyword `Bearer` is acceptable as a keyword
+ for the auth-token. The `Bearer` keyword is described in the original
+ OAuth RFC and used in libraries like Angular-JWT.
+
+ See #19094.
+
+ *Peter Schröder*
+
* Drop request class from RouteSet constructor.
