RAILS SHIPS QUERY LOG CONTROL AND CLEANS UP PRIMARY KEY PLUMBING
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Rails
Per-pool query log configuration lands in Rails, letting you silence noisy database connections without framework-wide toggles.
Rails merged a significant query logging refinement [1] that adds fine-grained control over query_log_tags at the connection pool level. You can now disable query logging per database entry in database.yml instead of an all-or-nothing approach, which means you can keep logs clean on read replicas or noisy analytics connections without affecting your primary. The framework also shipped a primary key refactor [2] that removes a class ivar alias, making it easier to keep primary_key and primary_key_definition in sync going forward. In parallel, the team landed validation improvements for retry_on [4] that catch invalid wait arguments at class definition time rather than at runtime. Test infrastructure fixes [3] addressed concurrency issues in the Ruby pre-3.3.5 WeakThreadKeyMap fallback and resolved lingering timing issues from earlier test rewrites. Meanwhile, the Rails website updated Intercom branding to Fin [5] across member pages, the homepage, and the Foundation section, with a follow-up logo correction [6] to ensure consistency.

- What should Rails teams do about it?
- Review your database.yml for overly verbose connection pools and consider applying query_log_tags: false to silence them • Check for any custom retry_on configurations that might rely on invalid wait types; they'll now error at boot
