Rails reset counter caches

Today I learned that Rails has an easy way to reset counter caches

You just need to call reset_counters(id, *counters) method

irb> Organization.reset_counters(4, :repositories)
  Organization Load (0.3ms)  SELECT  "organizations".* FROM "organizations" WHERE "organizations"."id" = $1 LIMIT $2  [["id", 4], ["LIMIT", 1]]
   (0.5ms)  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "repositories" WHERE "repositories"."organization_id" = $1  [["organization_id", 4]]
  SQL (2.1ms)  UPDATE "organizations" SET "repositories_count" = 6 WHERE "organizations"."id" = $1  [["id", 4]]
=> true
