Ooh, I didn't know about the rvm-prompt modifier arguments. Updating my prompt now.

Lean and mean! Hey, were you a interested in traveling in Nov for that talk. Totally understand if your not. I forgot to ask too, you going to RubyConf? Funny, github gist chat :)

Heh, I'll email.

As long as I've configured my .rvmrc files properly in each folder then I don't ever need to worry about which gemset. Set it up once and forget!

@djbrowning, done that! But if your developing things that need testing on different versions and you like have N terminal windows dedicated to that version in the same project, it get's really really handy. So much of what I do is not so rigid. Project default helps tho and I have them in every folder.

Off topic, but for projects, I don't find gemsets to be of much use. Every project should have a Gemfile and install the project gems in a .gitignore'd directory. I really don't like the default behavior that bundle install has such that it installs gems to the current gem path. I like my project's gems to be installed under a gitignored vendor directory.

$ bundle install --path vendor
$ bundle package
$ echo 'vendor/ruby' >> .gitignore

All my project's gems are kept with the project itself (because of --path vendor), everyone has access to the cache (because of bundle package), and gemsets are barely needed.

Interesting, may do that on my HomeMarks or other adhoc projects. I've spent more of my time developing gems/libs, like the adapter where I'm not so sure that works well, tho I could be very wrong. Been there before :)

Yeah, it should work for any ruby project. I use Gemfiles even for one-off spikes nowadays. The only hiccup, I suppose, is coordinating your Gemfile with your gemspec.

You guy might have already seen my blog post from today, but for posterity sake, here's more detail about my usage of bundler and rvm for applications. This comment thread was actually what originally set the spark to write this post.
