How will rails 4 affect my current application?

I am new to rails and I would like to upgrade to Rails 4. At the same time I have been working on a small Beta with Rails 3.2 this past year....

If I upgrade will my current app be affected or will it mess it up. I would really want to upgrade but I don't want my current BETA to encounter any problems.

How will upgrading to rails 4 affect my current application.

Breaking news: Just released a new free rails cast about Upgrading to Rails4. http://railscasts.com/episodes/415-upgrading-to-rails-4

A tip. You can use this gem to check how compatible your environment with rails4. https://github.com/alindeman/rails4_upgrade

Read the upgrade guide here: http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html

You should assume there will be problems that come up. Make sure you're using git or some other SCM tool so you can have a separate branch that you test rails 4 in. You may also want to use RVM so you can separate your rails 4 gemset from your current one.
