Action Pack

* All 2xx requests are considered successful [Josh Peek]

* Deprecate the limited follow_redirect in functional tests.  If you wish to follow redirects, use integration tests. [Michael Koziarski]

* Fixed that AssetTagHelper#compute_public_path shouldn't cache the asset_host along with the source or per-request proc's won't run [DHH]

* Deprecate define_javascript_functions, javascript_include_tag and friends are much better [Michael Koziarski]

* Fix polymorphic_url with singleton resources.  #461 [Tammer Saleh]

* Deprecate ActionView::Base.erb_variable. Use the concat helper method instead of appending to it directly.  [Jeremy Kemper]

* Fixed Request#remote_ip to only raise hell if the HTTP_CLIENT_IP and HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR doesn't match (not just if they're both present) [Mark Imbriaco, Bradford Folkens]



Active Record

* Set config.active_record.timestamped_migrations = false to have migrations with numeric prefix instead of UTC timestamp. #446. [Andrew Stone, Nik Wakelin]

* Fixed that create database statements would always include "DEFAULT NULL" (Nick Sieger) [#334]

* change_column_default preserves the not-null constraint.  #617 [Tarmo Tänav]

* Add :tokenizer option to validates_length_of to specify how to split up the attribute string. #507. [David Lowenfels] Example :

  # Ensure essay contains at least 100 words.
  validates_length_of :essay, :minimum => 100, :too_short => "Your essay must be at least %d words."), :tokenizer => lambda {|str| str.scan(/\w+/) }

* Always treat integer :limit as byte length.  #420 [Tarmo Tänav]

* Partial updates don't update lock_version if nothing changed.  #426 [Daniel Morrison]

* Fix column collision with named_scope and :joins.  #46 [Duncan Beevers, Mark Catley]

* db:migrate:down and :up update schema_migrations.  #369 [Michael Raidel, RaceCondition]

* PostgreSQL: support :conditions => [':foo::integer', { :foo => 1 }] without treating the ::integer typecast as a bind variable.  [Tarmo Tänav]

* MySQL: rename_column preserves column defaults.  #466 [Diego Algorta]

* Add :from option to calculations.  #397 [Ben Munat]

* Add :validate option to associations to enable/disable the automatic validation of associated models. Resolves #301. [Jan De Poorter]

* PostgreSQL: use 'INSERT ... RETURNING id' for 8.2 and later.  [Jeremy Kemper]

* Added SQL escaping for :limit and :offset in MySQL [Jonathan Wiess]


Active Resource

* Fixed Base#exists? to check status code as integer [#299 state:resolved] (Wes Oldenbeuving)


*Active Support*

* Fix Ruby's Time marshaling bug in pre-1.9 versions of Ruby: utc instances are now correctly unmarshaled with a utc zone instead of the system local zone [#900 state:resolved]:activesupport/CHANGELOG

* TimeWithZone: when crossing DST boundary, treat Durations of days, months or years as variable-length, and all other values as absolute length. A time + 24.hours will advance exactly 24 hours, but a time + 1.day will advance 23-25 hours, depending on the day. Ensure consistent behavior across all advancing methods [Geoff Buesing]

* Fix TimeWithZone unmarshaling: coerce unmarshaled Time instances to utc, because Ruby's marshaling of Time instances doesn't respect the zone [Geoff Buesing]

* Added StringQuestioneer for doing things like StringQuestioneer.new("production").production? # => true and StringQuestioneer.new("production").development? # => false [DHH]

* Fixed Date#end_of_quarter to not blow up on May 31st [#289 state:resolved] (Danger)


*Rail Ties*

* Fix script/about in production mode.  #370 [Cheah Chu Yeow, Xavier Noria, David Krmpotic]

* Add the gem load paths before the framework is loaded, so certain gems like RedCloth and BlueCloth can be frozen.

* Fix discrepancies with loading rails/init.rb from gems.

* Plugins check for the gem init path (rails/init.rb) before the standard plugin init path (init.rb)  [Jacek Becela]

* Wrapped Rails.env in StringInquirer so you can do Rails.env.development? [DHH]

* Fixed that RailsInfoController wasn't considering all requests local in development mode (Edgard Castro) [#310 state:resolved]
