Deep inheritance cloning

[kdisneur]

Hi,

We use amoeba to preview modifications on our data models, but we have an issue with deep inheritance as described below:

Basically a box has_many sub_products. In our example, box.sub_products returns SubSubProduct objects and we are unable to access to a parent class association, like in the graph above.
box.amoeba_dup.sub_products.first.another_product returns nil instead of AnotherProduct instance.

We have created a dummy app that reproduces the problem, you can find specs in the following repository: https://github.com/kdisneur/amoeba_inheritance

We've been really happy with amoeba so far and we're sorry we don't come with a fix (for now) but we wanted to share the issue with you.

Cool thanks for the report and the test case, that's great, I'll have a look.

Thanks you. For now, to achieve the expected behavior, we've added an amoeba block in the SubProduct model.
