Rails upgrade

[Gabriel Mazetto]

Hi everybody,

I want to know if there are any rails upgrade on schedule or any ETA. As gitorious is currently using Rails 2.3.5 and lagging behind every single library/utility it's getting really hard to maintain installation and upgrades.

If there aren't plans for a Rails 3.2 release soon, I suggest that at least migrate to rails 2.3.14. I can start doing the work on this matter, if anyone is interested to help.

Also I would like to know if there is anything blocking migration to newer releases (for example a library or something that doesn't work well).

Hi Gabriel, I tried to start migrating it a while ago, but I guess my merge request for replacing the authentication system with Devise wasn't merge yet:

https://gitorious.org/gitorious/mainline/merge_requests/168

I wasn't willing to invest much time for such a very slow progress, so I decided to invest my time on other projects.

Some work has already been merged, but I would like to replace the authentication system with Devise in the new Rails 3 port.

Best of luck! Looking forward a Rails 3 version of Gitorious as well. Redmine has already migrated to Rails 3 after a long while.

Cheers,
Rodrigo.

Hi Rodrigo,

Thank you for your answer. I saw that despiteyour merge request is marked as "merged" It looks like it's not really merged.

I would like to ask again, is there anything preventing a Rails 2.3.14 migration? If I code what's needed to get it working, can I expect that my merge request get accepted?

I'm asking because I don't want to invest time into something that will not be accepted into master by some unknown reason.

Hi,

just a related FYI: Marius, Christian and myself will soon start processing the merge request backlog and hopefully handle new ones more rapidly : come late July/early August we'll be able to dedicate working hours to the MR backlog.

cheers,
Thomas @ gitorious.com

Hi,

Thank you. I just want to point that I've created a ticket for the Rails 2.3.14 migration and I would really appreciate your feedback there: https://issues.gitorious.org/issues/107
