//     Makes Backbone.js play nicely with the default Rails setup, i.e.,
//     no need to set

//     `params[:model]`.
//
//     Load this file after backbone.js and before your application JS.

UPDATE: Please see some of the forks for an updated version of this guide. I
myself have moved onto the Rails 3.1 betas to get the asset pipeline. But if
you want to stay on stable there are other folks who are keeping this guide
relevant despite the changes constantly occurring on Sprockets 2. The comments

This stuff will be native in Rails 3.1 and the layout of the files on the

Hola Rails people. I have a column in my database that I need to treat
as case-insensitive. The standard solution to this is to downcase the
value before inserting it into the database, and when doing

*really* mean "this is case-insensitive"

2. I can only provide automatic-downcasing when going through the API
I provide. Anyone calling MyClass.where(:name => foo) has to know to

This is how I synced my forked underscore.js repo with the original repo
From your forked repo:

git checkout -b upstream/master
git remote add upstream git://github.com/documentcloud/underscore.git
git pull upstream master
git checkout master                          // [my master branch]
git merge upstream/master (git rebase upstream/master ????)
git push origin master
