From 7c6d99e81e05be57b884cbfed4e12986669bd5b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yves Senn Date: Thu, 28 Nov 2013 17:21:18 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] first pass through CHANGELOGS to extract 4_1_release_notes. [ci skip] Extract **notable changes**, **deprecations** and **removals** from each CHANGELOG. I tried to reference the commits and pull requests for new features and deprecations. In the process I also made some minor changes to the CHANGELOGS. The 4_1_release_notes guide is declared WIP. --- actionpack/CHANGELOG.md | 6 +- activemodel/CHANGELOG.md | 4 +- activerecord/CHANGELOG.md | 5 +- activesupport/CHANGELOG.md | 20 ++- guides/source/4_1_release_notes.md | 259 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 5 files changed, 273 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff --git a/actionpack/CHANGELOG.md b/actionpack/CHANGELOG.md index e649847990a..f52a07eaee9 100644 --- a/actionpack/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/actionpack/CHANGELOG.md @@ -130,10 +130,6 @@ *Vasiliy Ermolovich* -* Separate Action View completely from Action Pack. - - *Łukasz Strzałkowski* - * Development mode exceptions are rendered in text format in case of XHR request. *Kir Shatrov* @@ -234,7 +230,7 @@ *Yves Senn*, *Andrew White* -* ActionView extracted from ActionPack. +* Action View extracted from Action Pack. *Piotr Sarnacki*, *Łukasz Strzałkowski* diff --git a/activemodel/CHANGELOG.md b/activemodel/CHANGELOG.md index e8602ecbcf4..77d1252f1f7 100644 --- a/activemodel/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/activemodel/CHANGELOG.md @@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ *William Myers* -* Added new API methods `reset_changes` and `changed_applied` to `ActiveModel::Dirty` +* Added new API methods `reset_changes` and `changes_applied` to `ActiveModel::Dirty` that control changes state.
