Rails - Aug 2014 - Where do I place the javascript file that is only required for one (or just a few) view(s)?

Hi all,

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I haven't found any post 
matching what I'm looking for.  (If there is, please point me to it!)

I'd like to include a javascript in the header section, but just for one 
view.  I went through the guides and I understand you can do something like 
this inside a particular view:

<% content_for :head do %>
  <script src="(path_to_)myJavascript.js"></script>
<% end %>

However, if I add myJavascript.js in app/assets/javascripts, it gets loaded 
for every single page.  Years ago, when I did RoR development (before 
assets), I used to put javascripts in the public/javascripts.  Is that 
still where I should put theses one-off javascript files?  What is the best 
practice now?

Thanks for any pointers!
Kumi
