Hello, Haml 4.0.1.rc.1 has been released! 4.0.1 will be a bugfix release that neither changes or introduces any features.
A summary of the changes follows: * Fix support for the Rails 4 `text_area` helper method. * Fix support for sass-rails 4.0 beta. * Fix data attribute flattening with singleton objects. * Remove Rails 3.2.3+ textarea hack in favor of a more general solution. * Fix some performance regressions. The final two changes touch a reasonably significant amount of code, therefore I've decided to do a release candidate gem even though this is a very minor release. As was discussed recently on this list, Haml 4.0.0 shipped with performance regressions, despite my claim in the release notes that it had "better performance" than Haml 3.1.8. This was an oversight on my part and I apologize for the inaccurate claim. Haml 4.0.1.rc.1 has performance that is close to that of Haml 3.1.4, which was the previously best-performing version of Haml. You can see more details and benchmarks in this commit: https://github.com/haml/haml/commit/2efd12f27e3d5e60bcbe1b34a9507518262747e4 Performance will be a focus of development going forward until we've significantly exceeded the performance of 3.1.4. The code currently in master is already slightly faster than 3.1.4 for compiled Haml in ugly mode, which is how Haml is used in production in Rails apps. Anyway, please do give 4.0.1.rc.1 a try and let us know if you come across any issues. If no bugs are discovered, then I will release it as 4.0.1 with no code changes a week from today.
