[Rails5] Explicitly set request.format for blob_controller In Rails 4.2 if params[:format] is empty, Rails set it to :html But since Rails 5.0 the framework now looks for an extension. E.g. for `blob/master/CHANGELOG.md` in Rails 4 the format would be `:html`, but in Rails 5 on it'd be `:md` This commit explicitly sets the `:html` format for all requests unless `:format` is set by a client e.g. by JS for XHR requests. 2018-06-15 01:00:20 -04:00			`---`
