Description

I think I18n brokes standard rails behavior.

I've tried to translate repository/git url attribute in a standard rails way, adding:


  activerecord:
    models:
      repository/git:
        attributes:
          url: Path to git repository

But there an error occur, when i try to save git repo with empty url:


ActionView::TemplateError (translation data {:attributes=>{:url=>"Path to git repository"}} can not be used with :count => 1) on line #6 of app/views/projects/settings/_repository.rhtml:
3:                    :builder => TabularFormBuilder,
4:                    :lang => current_language do |f| %>
5: 
6: <%= error_messages_for 'repository' %>
7: 
8: <div class="box tabular">
9: <p><%= label_tag('repository_scm', l(:label_scm)) %><%= scm_select_tag(@repository) %></p>

    config/initializers/10-patches.rb:21:in `full_messages'
    config/initializers/10-patches.rb:20:in `full_messages'

And the other problem with TabularFormBuilder#label_for_field - it isn't render translated name for AR attributes.

source:config/initializers/10-patches.rb#L10

1    def self.human_attribute_name(attr)
2      l("field_#{attr.to_s.gsub(/_id$/, '')}")
3    end

Therefore it translates url field in all models as a 'URL'. I think this behavior is unclear for most rails developers
