My workaround is to do my before_update as follows:
before_update :incr_rev
private
def incr_rev
if changed?
self.revision = self.revision + 1
end
end
With this workaround, it still calls the before_update callback when I
create a new record, but doesn't actually do an update.
I'm baffled that it would be calling the before_update callback if it's
not changed, but it does.
Starting to wonder if I've found a bug.
