History

Andrew White 8931916f4a Ensure duration parsing is consistent across DST changes Previously `ActiveSupport::Duration.parse` used `Time.current` and `Time#advance` to calculate the number of seconds in the duration from an arbitrary collection of parts. However as `advance` tries to be consistent across DST boundaries this meant that either the duration was shorter or longer depending on the time of year. This was fixed by using an absolute reference point in UTC which isn't subject to DST transitions. An arbitrary date of Jan 1st, 2000 was chosen for no other reason that it seemed appropriate. Additionally, duration parsing should now be marginally faster as we are no longer creating instances of `ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone` every time we parse a duration string. Fixes #26941.		2016-10-31 17:25:43 +00:00
