Breaking Changes

●Issue #1

The `Devise::SessionsController#create` action no longer accepts `params[:session]` for sign-in. You must now use `params[:user]` or `params[:admin]` depending on the scope being used for sign-in.

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Review all usages of `params[:session]` in custom controllers and update them to use the appropriate scope parameter (e.g., `params[:user]`).
  2. 2
    If using `Devise.sign_out_all_users!`, replace it with `warden.logout` for the specific scope or use `Warden::Proxy#logout` if global sign-out is required.

Release Summary

Devise v5.0.0.rc introduces MFA support and updates session controller parameter handling, necessitating migration steps for sign-in logic.
