+*SVN*
+
+* Fixed that a default fragment store wan't being set to MemoryStore as intended.
+
+* Fixed that all redirect and render calls now return true, so you can use the pattern of "do and return". Example:
+
+ def show
+ redirect_to(:action => "login") and return unless @person.authenticated?
+ render_text "I won't happen unless the person is authenticated"
+ end
+
+* Added that renders and redirects called in before_filters will have the same effect as returning false: stopping the chain. Example:
+
+ class WeblogController
+ before_filter { |c| c.send(:redirect_to_url("http://www.farfaraway.com")}) }
+
+ def hello
+ render_text "I will never be called"
+ end
+ end
+
+
+* Added that only one render or redirect can happen per action. The first call wins and subsequent calls are ignored. Example:
+
+ def do_something
+ redirect_to :action => "elsewhere"
+ render_action "overthere"
+ end
+
+ Only the redirect happens. The rendering call is simply ignored.
+
+
*1.3.1* (January 18th, 2005)
* Fixed a bug where cookies wouldn't be set if a symbol was used instead of a string as the key
