Standup 10/12/2010: checking in Gemfile.lock versus ruby version differences

Pivotal Labs
Tuesday, October 12, 2010

Help

“Yesterday we agreed to always check in the Gemfile.lock, but 1.8 and 1.9 versions differ slightly so…?”

It wouldn’t quite make sense to maintain a whole separate branch, but someone cleverly suggested making the file a symlink and having your .rvmrc manage which file the symlink points to.

    How do they actually differ? Sounds like the “platforms” option might work? (We have a similar issue with JRuby and MRI, but it seems to sort itself out with separating stuff into platforms).
