abMatGit opened a new pull request, #3680:
URL: https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/3680

   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
     This pull request partially addresses 
[AVRO-2818](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2818) by adding support 
for encoding ISO 8601 date strings (`YYYY-MM-DD`) in the Ruby SDK's `IntDate` 
logical type.
   
     Previously, `IntDate.encode` only accepted `Numeric` or `Date`/`Time` 
objects. Passing a string such as `'1970-01-06'` would raise a `NoMethodError` 
because `String#to_date` is not part of Ruby's standard library. This change 
adds a `Date.parse` call when the input is a `String`, allowing callers to pass 
ISO 8601 date strings directly without pre-converting them to `Date` objects.
   
     ## Verifying this change
   
     This change added tests and can be verified as follows:
   
     - Extended `test_int_date_conversion` in `test/test_logical_types.rb` to 
assert that ISO 8601 date strings are correctly encoded to their integer day 
offset from the Unix epoch
       - `'1970-01-06'` encodes to `5`
       - `'1970-01-01'` encodes to `0`
