upgrading rails versions used to build that handle the
recently found cve. This is not vulnerable, but best to use
the suggested version
build with ruby 2.6. Ancestry should still work fine with ruby 2.5
but the version is EOL.
version 3.0.2 will still support older versions of AR
version 4+ will be more recent versions of active record and ruby.
- Changed Gemfile to not have conditional dependency for ruby < 2.0
- Using latest pg driver (except ar 4.2)
- Dropped support for mysql driver (using mysql2 instead)
As for the community as a whole:
Only rails 5.2 is supported
with severe security fixes to 5.2, 5.1, 5.0, 4.2
Only ruby 2.4 and higher are supported
with severe security fixes to 2.3
----
trouble installing mysql driver on ruby 2.4.2 finally broke the
camel's back - Dropped active record 3.2
- Fix issue where "minitest/autorun" must be required for newer versions
of Rails
- Made sqlite3 the default local database when not using appraisals
- Handle non-installed databases when running `appraisal rake test`
locally
