wacky double space after link-to
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Actually @mixonic this is intentional. Many people see code as a dead thing, cold symbols to instruct the unfeeling machine what to do. However, the truth is that code, like any living being, is coursing with energy and its own sense of purpose. Here, I could intuitively feel that the {{link-to}} helper was feeling constrained by being forced into such close proximity with the argument, badly damaging the feng shui of this file.
lol j/k I fixed it

Previously, {{link-to}} would work even if the application had not been
booted completely. This behavior is relied on by test harnesses like
ember-qunit, since an “integration test” of a component may include a
template that uses {{link-to}}. Many people have discovered that they
would like to test a component that has a link without booting the
entire app.

During the Glimmer work, we refactored the interface between the
LinkComponent and the router into a service. Unfortunately, this
caused a regression where rendering the link before the router was
completely initialized would raise an exception.
This commit adds a very stupid guard to ensure that we have enough
router state to determine if a link is active or not. This whole path
could be significantly cleaned up, and in particular, we should move
towards using a stubbed routing service in tests that encapsulates all
of these concerns.
