Hi everyone,

Rails 3.1.1 has been released. This release requires at least sass-rails 3.1.4

Action Mailer

Action Pack

stylesheet_link_tag(‘/stylesheets/application’) and similar helpers doesn’t throw Sprockets::FileOutsidePaths exception anymore [Santiago Pastorino]

Ensure default_asset_host_protocol is respected, closes #2980. [José Valim] Changing rake db:schema:dump to run :environment as well as :load_config, as running :load_config alone will lead to the dumper being run without including extensions such as those included in foreigner and spatial_adapter. This reverses a change made here: https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/5df72a238e9fcb18daf6ab6e6dc9051c9106d7bb#L0L324 I’m assuming here that :load_config needs to be invoked separately from :environment, as it is elsewhere in the file for db operations, if not the alternative is to go back to “task :dump => :environment do”. [Ben Woosley]

Update to rack-cache 1.1. Versions prior to 1.1 delete the If-Modified-Since and If-Not-Modified headers when config.action_controller.perform_caching is true. This has two problems: unexpected inconsistent behaviour between development & production environments

breaks applications that use of these headers [Brendan Ribera]

Ensure that enhancements to assets:precompile task are only run once [Sam Pohlenz]

TestCase should respect the view_assigns API instead of pulling variables on its own. [José Valim]

javascript_path and stylesheet_path now refer to /assets if asset pipelining is on. [Santiago Pastorino]

button_to support form option. Now you’re able to pass for example ‘data-type’ => ‘json’. [ihower]

image_path and image_tag should use /assets if asset pipelining is turned on. Closes #3126 [Santiago Pastorino and christos]

Avoid use of existing precompiled assets during rake assets:precompile run. Closes #3119 [Guillermo Iguaran]

Copy assets to nondigested filenames too [Santiago Pastorino]

Give precedence to config.digest = false over the existence of manifest.yml asset digests [christos]

escape options for the stylesheet_link_tag method [Alexey Vakhov]

Re-launch assets:precompile task using (Rake.)ruby instead of Kernel.exec so it works on Windows [cablegram]

env var passed to process shouldn’t be modified in process method. [Santiago Pastorino]

rake assets:precompile loads the application but does not initialize it. To the app developer, this means configuration add in config/initializers/* will not be executed. Plugins developers need to special case their initializers that are meant to be run in the assets group by adding :group => :assets. [José Valim]

Sprockets uses config.assets.prefix for asset_path [asee]

FileStore key_file_path properly limit filenames to 255 characters. [phuibonhoa]

Fix Hash#to_query edge case with html_safe strings. [brainopia]

Allow asset tag helper methods to accept :digest => false option in order to completely avoid the digest generation. Useful for linking assets from static html files or from emails when the user could probably look at an older html email with an older asset. [Santiago Pastorino]

Don’t mount Sprockets server at config.assets.prefix if config.assets.compile is false. [Mark J. Titorenko]

Set relative url root in assets when controller isn’t available for Sprockets (eg. Sass files using asset_path). Fixes #2435 [Guillermo Iguaran]

Fix basic auth credential generation to not make newlines. GH #2882

Fixed the behavior of asset pipeline when config.assets.digest and config.assets.compile are false and requested asset isn’t precompiled. Before the requested asset were compiled anyway ignoring that the config.assets.compile flag is false. [Guillermo Iguaran]

CookieJar is now Enumerable. Fixes #2795

Fixed AssetNotPrecompiled error raised when rake assets:precompile is compiling certain .erb files. See GH #2763 #2765 #2805 [Guillermo Iguaran]

Manifest is correctly placed in assets path when default assets prefix is changed. Fixes #2776 [Guillermo Iguaran]

Fixed stylesheet_link_tag and javascript_include_tag to respect additional options passed by the users when debug is on. [Guillermo Iguaran]

Fix ActiveRecord#exists? when passsed a nil value
