Broken under ruby 2.1?

[tom-pang]

There's one super hard to figure out test failure under 2.1:

# Running tests:

Looks like our development dumping on our rails app doesn't work at all either.

I've scratched my head a bunch, and dug into the code some but I can't figure out what's causing the difference (the diff is that one has 06ET, the other 06EF)

Strange indeed. Thanks for the report. Failing test is:

https://github.com/rtomayko/replicate/blob/9181dce22ef/test/dumper_test.rb#L47-L54

Smells like maybe a timestamp was added to the base marshal stuff but I haven't dug in too much to verify.

@rtomayko : thanks for the response. Do you know if this might affect the bug that we're actually seeing when replicating from prod (via a script that does things over ssh), where the steps look like the following:

1. replicate some AR objects
2. replicate says it's dumping objects to the db
3. objects never appear in databas (even though replicate says it's writing them)
