Loading plugin rake tasks before #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks
I would like to be able to have the ability to access/modify rake
tasks provided by a plugin from within my application, in tasks
defined in #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks. Right now, the plugin .rake files
are loaded after those found in #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks, so the latter
can''t access the former without an explicit rake_require, which seems
kind of odd.
If you''ve ever needed to overwrite a rake task provided by a plugin,
and didn''t want to modify the original plugin source, please check
this patch out and +1 if it looks okay.
Thanks

Re: Loading plugin rake tasks before #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks
I would''ve guessed it was more common that plugins might overwrite one of the default rake tasks, no?

Re: Loading plugin rake tasks before #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/tasks
Plugins would still be able to overwrite the Rails-provided rake tasks. The patch just makes it so that the rake tasks you define in .rake files in your application are able to overwrite those defined by either Rails *or* plugins.
