hey folks,
I migrated to 2.1 from 2.0.2, turned on the partial_update
functionality, and specs started to fail.  It seems that calling
'save_without_validation!' on an existing object does not trigger the
save_with_dirty! method.


The path is a bit convoluted, but when save_without_validation! is
called... it calls:
ActiveRecord::Base#update method -> then is overloaded by
ActiveRecord::Dirty#update_with_dirty, which does not clear out the
changed attributes.

adding a patch like the one pasted at the bottom of this msg fixes the
issue.


I'm not sure if this is the right fix or not.  It seems that calling
save_without_validation! should still call the save_with_dirty!
method, just like save! calls the save_with_dirty! method.  The fact
that it calls the update_with_dirty might just be 'luck'?


Thanks,
Adam


**PATCH**

# HACK: why does this not work if I chain it from within the module
Dirty?
# It doesn't seem to pick it up if I use update_with_dirty_with_patch
# and *_without_patch.... but this works as it is patched in after
# ActiveRecord::Base has been extended with ActiveRecord::Dirty
module ActiveRecord
  class Base
    def update_with_patch
      update_without_patch
      #FIX: make sure the changed attributes are cleared out after a
successful update!!!
      changed_attributes.clear rescue nil
    end
    alias_method_chain :update, :patch

  end
end
