Turbolinks doesn't recognize form re-submission [POST] and navigates instead [GET].

[azeezahmed]

Steps to Reproduce

1. scaffold a test_app with name: string as a required field.
2. Run migrations.
3. start rails server. link to test app
4. have the form to generate errors ( name can't be blank )
5. click refresh button (F5).

Expected Behaviour

The user should see browser confirm dialog box for form resubmission as below ( POST ).

Actual Behaviour

The page navigates to /users ( users#index, sends GET request).

Removing //= require turbolinks from asset pipeline restores the expected behaviour.

I confirm the issue.
After an invalid submission I always land on /users/. To make matters worse, after I hit refresh, I get 404 unless I "protect" the index page somehow.

This should definitely be fixed.

Is there any progress with this?
