Subject: [ruby-core:52023] [ruby-trunk - Feature #7739] Define Hash#| as Hash#reverse_merge in Rails


Issue #7739 has been updated by PikachuEXE (Pikachu Leung).


I prefer using the name `#reverse_merge`
Since we don't have operator for `#merge`

Using an explicit name makes people try to understand what they are doing

I suggest for to define (({Hash#|})) as (({Hash#reverse_merge})) in ((*Rails*)), in my opinion this would correspond nicely to (({Set#|})), to the logical (({#||})) and to the bitwise (({#|})):

  { :a => 1, :b => 2 } | { :b => 1, :c => 2 }  # => { :a => 1, :b => 1, :c => 2 }
=end
