Remove superfluous return value from 'before' callbacks#313

My current guess is that without the "true" our callbacks evaluate to a
falsy value (e.g. nil) and that causes an abort on 5.0. Will check some
other time. (Weird thing is, I think I tried the configuration to get the
new behavior and it didn't help.)

If you were setting it in config/application.rb, it's being overridden by this: nztrain/config/initializers/new_framework_defaults.rb Lines 24 to 25 in 5f00a74 I'll push some changes here to opt into the new behavior, hopefully that's fine. |

Thanks, please do.

In Rails 5.0, halting a 'before' callback by returning false is deprecated in favour of `throw(:abort)`, and in Rails 5.1 that feature is removed. All our callbacks currently return true, so this shouldn't cause any changes in behaviour. See https://guides.rubyonrails.org/v5.2/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#halting-callback-chains-via-throw-abort
These were only necessary to avoid halting callback chains under the previous behaviour.

Reminder for myself to look into this (help welcome). I thought it would be a simple but I get errors; maybe this needs to wait for Rails 5.1, or maybe I misunderstood the documentation, specifically what they mean by "return". Relevant Rails code: deprecation, removal.
