These warnings appear in the logs in the development environment, and,
with Rails 7, the application will crash. When running the tests, they
would appear in the standard error ouput if we set `config.cache_classes
= false` in the test environment but, since that isn't the case, they
don't.
To reproduce these warnings (or the lack of them), start a Rails console
in development and check the log/development.log file.
This method changed in Globalize version 6.0.1 [1], which we're using since
commit 6072372c9d.
We were getting a deprecation warning in Ruby 2.7:
```
config/initializers/globalize.rb:8: warning: Using the last argument as
keyword parameters is deprecated; maybe ** should be added to the call
```
So we're using the `(...)` arguments syntax to make it compatible with
Ruby 3.0, just like Globalize does when using Ruby 2.7.

This method was introduced in Rails 6.0. It can be used to take an array
and create a hash where the elements of the array are the indexes of the
hash.
There are CONSUL installations where the validations CONSUL offers by
default don't make sense because they're using a different business
logic. Removing these validations in a custom model was hard, and that's
why in many cases modifying the original CONSUL models was an easier
solution.
Since modifying the original CONSUL models makes the code harder to
maintain, we're now providing a way to easily skip validations in a
custom model. For example, in order to skip the price presence
validation in the Budget::Heading model, we could write a model in
`app/models/custom/budget/heading.rb`:
```
require_dependency Rails.root.join("app", "models", "budget", "heading").to_s
class Budget::Heading
skip_validation :price, :presence
end
```
In order to skip validation on translatable attributes (defined with
`validates_translation`), we have to use the
`skip_translation_validation` method; for example, to skip the proposal
title presence validation:
```
require_dependency Rails.root.join("app", "models", "proposal").to_s
class Proposal
skip_translation_validation :title, :presence
end
```

When we were visiting a page showing the content of a record which uses
globalize and our locale was the default one and there was no
translation for the default locale, the application was crashing in some
places because there are no fallbacks for the default locale.
For example, when visiting a legislation process, the line with
`CGI.escape(title)` was crashing because `title` was `nil` for the
default locale.
We've decided to solve this issue by using any available translations as
globalize fallbacks instead of showing a 404 error or a translation
missing error because these solutions would (we thinkg) either require
modifying many places in the application or making the translatable
logic even more complex.
Initially we tried to add this solution to an initializer, but it must
be called after initializing the application so I18n.fallbacks[locale]
gets the value defined in config.i18n.fallbacks.
Also note the line:
fallbacks[locale] = I18n.fallbacks[locale] + I18n.available_locales
Doesn't mention `I18n.default_locale` because the method
`I18n.fallbacks[locale]` automatically adds the default locale.
