Rails Hints

Use Edge Rails Nicely with SVN

To set vendor/rails to the svn:externals of the latest revision of Edge Rails,

At the root of your rails app, run the command:

svn propedit svn:externals vendor

This will open up a text editor, in which you enter this line:

rails -rRevision_you_want http://dev.rubyonrails.com/svn/rails/trunk

At the time of writing the latest revision of Edge Rails is 7320, so the line will be:

rails -r7320 http://dev.rubyonrails.com/svn/rails/trunk

To install capistrano

sudo gem install capistrano -v 1.4.1 –include-dependencies

sudo gem install termios –include-dependencies
