-## Rails 3.2.0 (unreleased) ##
+## Rails 4.0.0 (unreleased) ##
+* Added an :index option to automatically create indexes for references
+ and belongs_to statements in migrations.
+
+ The `references` and `belongs_to` methods now support an `index`
+ option that receives either a boolean value or an options hash
+ that is identical to options available to the add_index method:
+
+ create_table :messages do |t|
+ t.references :person, :index => true
+ end
+
+ Is the same as:
+
+ create_table :messages do |t|
+ t.references :person
+ end
+ add_index :messages, :person_id
+
+ Generators have also been updated to use the new syntax.
+
+ [Joshua Wood]
+
+* Added bang methods for mutating `ActiveRecord::Relation` objects.
+ For example, while `foo.where(:bar)` will return a new object
+ leaving `foo` unchanged, `foo.where!(:bar)` will mutate the foo
+ object
+
+ *Jon Leighton*
+
+* Added `#find_by` and `#find_by!` to mirror the functionality
+ provided by dynamic finders in a way that allows dynamic input more
+ easily:
+
+ Post.find_by name: 'Spartacus', rating: 4
+ Post.find_by "published_at < ?", 2.weeks.ago
+ Post.find_by! name: 'Spartacus'
+
+ *Jon Leighton*
+
+* Added ActiveRecord::Base#slice to return a hash of the given methods with
+ their names as keys and returned values as values.
+
+ *Guillermo Iguaran*
+
+* Deprecate eager-evaluated scopes.
+
+ Don't use this:
+
+ scope :red, where(color: 'red')
+ default_scope where(color: 'red')
+
+ Use this:
+
+ scope :red, -> { where(color: 'red') }
+ default_scope { where(color: 'red') }
+
+ The former has numerous issues. It is a common newbie gotcha to do
+ the following:
+
+ scope :recent, where(published_at: Time.now - 2.weeks)
+
+ Or a more subtle variant:
+
+ scope :recent, -> { where(published_at: Time.now - 2.weeks) }
+ scope :recent_red, recent.where(color: 'red')
+
+ Eager scopes are also very complex to implement within Active
+ Record, and there are still bugs. For example, the following does
+ not do what you expect:
+
+ scope :remove_conditions, except(:where)
+ where(...).remove_conditions # => still has conditions
+
+ *Jon Leighton*
+
+* Remove IdentityMap
+
+ IdentityMap has never graduated to be an "enabled-by-default" feature, due
+ to some inconsistencies with associations, as described in this commit:
+
+ https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/302c912bf6bcd0fa200d964ec2dc4a44abe328a6
+
+ Hence the removal from the codebase, until such issues are fixed.
+
+ *Carlos Antonio da Silva*
+
+* Added the schema cache dump feature.
+
+ `Schema cache dump` feature was implemetend. This feature can dump/load internal state of `SchemaCache` instance
+ because we want to boot rails more quickly when we have many models.
+
+ Usage notes:
+
+ 1) execute rake task.
+ RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:schema:cache:dump
+ => generate db/schema_cache.dump
+
+ 2) add config.use_schema_cache_dump = true in config/production.rb. BTW, true is default.
+
+ 3) boot rails.
+ RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails server
+ => use db/schema_cache.dump
+
+ 4) If you remove clear dumped cache, execute rake task.
+ RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:schema:cache:clear
+ => remove db/schema_cache.dump
+
+ *kennyj*
+
+* Added support for partial indices to PostgreSQL adapter
+
+ The `add_index` method now supports a `where` option that receives a
+ string with the partial index criteria.
+
+ add_index(:accounts, :code, :where => "active")
+
+ Generates
+
+ CREATE INDEX index_accounts_on_code ON accounts(code) WHERE active
+
+ *Marcelo Silveira*
+
+* Implemented ActiveRecord::Relation#none method
+
+ The `none` method returns a chainable relation with zero records
+ (an instance of the NullRelation class).
+
+ Any subsequent condition chained to the returned relation will continue
+ generating an empty relation and will not fire any query to the database.
+
+ *Juanjo Bazán*
+
+* Added the `ActiveRecord::NullRelation` class implementing the null
+ object pattern for the Relation class. *Juanjo Bazán*
+
+* Added deprecation for the `:dependent => :restrict` association option.
+
+ Please note:
+
+ * Up until now `has_many` and `has_one`, `:dependent => :restrict`
+ option raised a `DeleteRestrictionError` at the time of destroying
+ the object. Instead, it will add an error on the model.
+
+ * To fix this warning, make sure your code isn't relying on a
+ `DeleteRestrictionError` and then add
+ `config.active_record.dependent_restrict_raises = false` to your
+ application config.
+
+ * New rails application would be generated with the
+ `config.active_record.dependent_restrict_raises = false` in the
+ application config.
+
+ *Manoj Kumar*
+
+* Added `create_join_table` migration helper to create HABTM join tables
+
+ create_join_table :products, :categories
+ # =>
+ # create_table :categories_products, :id => false do |td|
+ # td.integer :product_id, :null => false
+ # td.integer :category_id, :null => false
+ # end
+
+ *Rafael Mendonça França*
+
+* The primary key is always initialized in the @attributes hash to nil (unless
+ another value has been specified).
+
+* In previous releases, the following would generate a single query with
+ an `OUTER JOIN comments`, rather than two separate queries:
+
+ Post.includes(:comments)
+ .where("comments.name = 'foo'")
+
+ This behaviour relies on matching SQL string, which is an inherently
+ flawed idea unless we write an SQL parser, which we do not wish to
+ do.
+
+ Therefore, it is now deprecated.
+
+ To avoid deprecation warnings and for future compatibility, you must
+ explicitly state which tables you reference, when using SQL snippets:
+
+ Post.includes(:comments)
+ .where("comments.name = 'foo'")
+ .references(:comments)
+
+ Note that you do not need to explicitly specify references in the
+ following cases, as they can be automatically inferred:
+
+ Post.where(comments: { name: 'foo' })
+ Post.where('comments.name' => 'foo')
+ Post.order('comments.name')
+
+ You also do not need to worry about this unless you are doing eager
+ loading. Basically, don't worry unless you see a deprecation warning
+ or (in future releases) an SQL error due to a missing JOIN.
+
+ [Jon Leighton]
+
+* Support for the `schema_info` table has been dropped. Please
+ switch to `schema_migrations`.
+
+* Connections *must* be closed at the end of a thread. If not, your
+ connection pool can fill and an exception will be raised.
+
+* Added the `ActiveRecord::Model` module which can be included in a
+ class as an alternative to inheriting from `ActiveRecord::Base`:
+
+ class Post
+ include ActiveRecord::Model
+ end
+
+ Please note:
+
+ * Up until now it has been safe to assume that all AR models are
+ descendants of `ActiveRecord::Base`. This is no longer a safe
+ assumption, but it may transpire that there are areas of the
+ code which still make this assumption. So there may be
+ 'teething difficulties' with this feature. (But please do try it
+ and report bugs.)
+
+ * Plugins & libraries etc that add methods to `ActiveRecord::Base`
+ will not be compatible with `ActiveRecord::Model`. Those libraries
+ should add to `ActiveRecord::Model` instead (which is included in
+ `Base`), or better still, avoid monkey-patching AR and instead
+ provide a module that users can include where they need it.
+
+ * To minimise the risk of conflicts with other code, it is
+ advisable to include `ActiveRecord::Model` early in your class
+ definition.
+
+ *Jon Leighton*
+
+* PostgreSQL hstore records can be created.
+
+* PostgreSQL hstore types are automatically deserialized from the database.
+
+
+## Rails 3.2.3 (March 30, 2012) ##
+
+* Added find_or_create_by_{attribute}! dynamic method. *Andrew White*
+
+* Whitelist all attribute assignment by default. Change the default for newly generated applications to whitelist all attribute assignment. Also update the generated model classes so users are reminded of the importance of attr_accessible. *NZKoz*
+
+* Update ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods#attribute_present? to return false for empty strings. *Jacobkg*
+
+* Fix associations when using per class databases. *larskanis*
+
+* Revert setting NOT NULL constraints in add_timestamps *fxn*

+
+## Rails 3.2.2 (March 1, 2012) ##
+
+* No changes.
+
+
+## Rails 3.2.1 (January 26, 2012) ##
+
+* The threshold for auto EXPLAIN is ignored if there's no logger. *fxn*
+
+* Call `to_s` on the value passed to `table_name=`, in particular symbols
+ are supported (regression). *Sergey Nartimov*
+
+* Fix possible race condition when two threads try to define attribute
+ methods for the same class. *Jon Leighton*
+
+
+## Rails 3.2.0 (January 20, 2012) ##
+
+* Added a `with_lock` method to ActiveRecord objects, which starts
+ a transaction, locks the object (pessimistically) and yields to the block.
+ The method takes one (optional) parameter and passes it to `lock!`.
+
+ Before:
+
+ class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
+ def cancel!
+ transaction do
+ lock!
+ # ... cancelling logic
+ end
+ end
+ end
+
+ After:
+
+ class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
+ def cancel!
+ with_lock do
+ # ... cancelling logic
+ end
+ end
+ end
+
+ *Olek Janiszewski*
+
+* 'on' and 'ON' boolean columns values are type casted to true
+ *Santiago Pastorino*
+
+* Added ability to run migrations only for given scope, which allows
+ to run migrations only from one engine (for example to revert changes
+ from engine that you want to remove).
+
+ Example:
+ rake db:migrate SCOPE=blog
+
+ *Piotr Sarnacki*
+
+* Migrations copied from engines are now scoped with engine's name,
+ for example 01_create_posts.blog.rb. *Piotr Sarnacki*
+
+* Implements `AR::Base.silence_auto_explain`. This method allows the user to
+ selectively disable automatic EXPLAINs within a block. *fxn*
+
+* Implements automatic EXPLAIN logging for slow queries.
+
+ A new configuration parameter `config.active_record.auto_explain_threshold_in_seconds`
+ determines what's to be considered a slow query. Setting that to `nil` disables
+ this feature. Defaults are 0.5 in development mode, and `nil` in test and production
+ modes.
+
+ As of this writing there's support for SQLite, MySQL (mysql2 adapter), and
+ PostgreSQL.
+
+ *fxn*
