### 4.1.0

* bug fixes
  * Fix race condition of sending the confirmation instructions e-mail using background jobs.
    Using the previous `after_create` callback, the e-mail can be sent before
    the record be committed on database, generating a `ActiveRecord::NotFound` error.
    Now the confirmation e-mail will be only sent after the database commit,
    using the `after_commit` callback.
    It may break your test suite on Rails 4 if you are testing the sent e-mails
    or enqueued jobs using transactional fixtures enabled or `DatabaseCleaner` with `transaction` strategy.
    You can easily fix your test suite using the gem
    [test_after_commit](https://github.com/grosser/test_after_commit). For example, put in your Gemfile:

    ```ruby
      gem 'test_after_commit', :group => :test
    ```

    On Rails 5 `after_commit` callbacks are triggered even using transactional
    fixtures, then this fix will not break your test suite. If you are using `DatabaseCleaner` with the `deletion` or `truncation` strategies it may not break your tests. (by @allenwq)
  * Fix strategy checking in `Lockable#unlock_strategy_enabled?` for `:none` and
  `:undefined` strategies. (by @f3ndot)
* features
  * Humanize authentication keys in failure flash message (by @byzg)
    When you are configuring the translations of `devise.failure.invalid`, the
    `authentication_keys` is translated now.
* deprecations
  * Remove code supporting old session serialization format (by @fphilipe).
  * Now the `email_regexp` default uses a more permissive regex:
    `/\A[^@\s]+@[^@\s]+\z/` (by @kimgb)
  * Now the `strip_whitespace_keys` default is `[:email]` (by @ulissesalmeida)
  * Now the `reconfirmable` default is `true` (by @ulissesalmeida)
  * Now the `skip_session_storage` default is `[:http_auth]` (by @ulissesalmeida)
  * Now the `sign_out_via` default is `:delete` (by @ulissesalmeida)
* improvements
  * Avoids extra computation of friendly token for confirmation token (by @sbc100)

    the the default configuration of the following configurations: (by @ulissesalmeida)

    (by @bogdanvlviv)

### 4.0.0.rc2 - 2016-03-09

* enhancements
  * Introduced `DeviseController#set_flash_message!` for conditional flash
    messages setting to reduce complexity.
  * `rails g devise:install` will fail if the app does not have a ORM configured
    (by @arjunsharma)
  * Support to Rails 5 versioned migrations added.

* deprecations
  * omniauth routes are no longer defined with a wildcard `:provider` parameter,
    and provider specific routes are defined instead, so route helpers like `user_omniauth_authorize_path(:github)` are deprecated in favor of `user_github_authorize_path`.
    You can still use `omniauth_authorize_path(:user, :github)` if you need to
    call the helpers dynamically.

### 4.0.0.rc1 - 2016-01-02

* Support added to Rails 5 (by @twalpole).
* Devise no longer supports Rails 3.2 and 4.0.
* Devise no longer supports Ruby 1.9 and 2.0.

* deprecations
  * The `devise_parameter_sanitize` API has changed:
    The `for` method was deprecated in favor of `permit`:

    ```ruby
    def configure_permitted_parameters
      devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) << :subscribe_newsletter
      # Should become the following.
      devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:subscribe_newsletter])
    end
    ```

    The customization through instance methods on the sanitizer implementation
    should be done through it's `initialize` method:

    ```ruby
    class User::ParameterSanitizer < Devise::ParameterSanitizer
      def sign_up
        default_params.permit(:username, :email)
      end
    end

    # The `sign_up` method can be a `permit` call on the sanitizer `initialize`.

    class User::ParameterSanitizer < Devise::ParameterSanitizer
      def initialize(*)
        super
        permit(:sign_up, keys: [:username, :email])
      end
    end
    ```

    You can check more examples and explanations on the [README section](/plataformatec/devise#strong-parameters)
    and on the [ParameterSanitizer docs](lib/devise/parameter_sanitizer.rb).
