Why must raven override console methods like ['debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error', 'log'] ?

Raven.js overrides those methods for breadcrumbs. You can turn them off by doing { autoBreadcrumbs: false } during configuration. See more in Config.

The console plugin turns console.anything into Sentry errors. It pre-exists breadcrumbs, so at some point it was useful ... but we don't recommend using it today.

@benvinegar if it's not recommended to use it today, maybe autoBreadcrumbs shouldn't be true by default? Or are you trying to avoid breaking changes to the lib's API?

The console plugin turns every console message into a Sentry event. It isis separate from the breadcrumbs functionality, and must be activated manually (read: not enabled by default).
