I'm using the 2.0.0 rc, and really enjoying the Sprockets integration\u2014makes concatenation and minification of JavaScript incredibly easy! However, when developing, I would like to use the \"real\" js file, to be able to debug them properly. What would be the \"correct\" way of disabling this feature except for in the build process?
