:Extract [partial_name] shows message No such directory with file app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

Problem

:Extract [partial_name] shows message No such directory with file app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

Expected

• creates file [partial_name] in app/views/application/

Why

rails partials path has changed.
app/views/shared not found for recent Rails versions.

Rails 3.1, Rails 4, Rails 5 and whatever comes next

app/views/application
The engine searches this path automatically if the view is not found in the controller path.

Rails 3 and prior

app/views/shared
The engine does NOT search this path automatically.

Info

• This makes app/views/application/ a great place for your shared partials, which can then be rendered in your ERB as such: https://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/layouts_and_rendering.html

Nothing changed about app/views/shared, it was just a convention that never took off. I'm fine with getting rid of it, but we should axe the whole if rails#buffer().name() =~# '^app/views/layouts/application\>' conditional.

fixed and force-pushed!
Could you take a look ? @tpope

Drop this too.

[naofumi-fujii]

@tpope dropping this cond still shows No such directory message.

running vim command :Extract sample in app/views/layouts/application.html.erb tries to create app/views/application.html/_sample.html.erb.

i changed my mind to use app/views/shared for my partials.
I'm sorry for the mishap.
