* Add `ActiveStorage::Blob#open`, which downloads a blob to a tempfile on disk
and yields the tempfile. Deprecate `ActiveStorage::Downloading`.
*David Robertson, George Claghorn*
* Pass in `identify: false` as an argument when providing a `content_type` for
`ActiveStorage::Attached::{One,Many}#attach` to bypass automatic content
type inference. For example:
```ruby
@message.image.attach(
io: File.open('/path/to/file'),
filename: 'file.pdf',
content_type: 'application/pdf',
identify: false
)
```

* The Google Cloud Storage service properly supports streaming downloads.
It now requires version 1.11 or newer of the google-cloud-storage gem.
*George Claghorn*
* Use the [ImageProcessing](https://github.com/janko-m/image_processing) gem
for Active Storage variants, and deprecate the MiniMagick backend.
This means that variants are now automatically oriented if the original
image was rotated. Also, in addition to the existing ImageMagick
operations, variants can now use `:resize_to_fit`, `:resize_to_fill`, and
other ImageProcessing macros. These are now recommended over raw `:resize`,
as they also sharpen the thumbnail after resizing.
The ImageProcessing gem also comes with a backend implemented on
[libvips](http://jcupitt.github.io/libvips/), an alternative to
ImageMagick which has significantly better performance than
ImageMagick in most cases, both in terms of speed and memory usage. In
Active Storage it's now possible to switch to the libvips backend by
changing `Rails.application.config.active_storage.variant_processor` to
`:vips`.
*Janko Marohnić*
* Rails 6 requires Ruby 2.4.1 or newer.
*Jeremy Daer*
