I have been using rails on Debian Sarge since May of last year. I initially gem installed rails as root and since then I have been gem updating the installation. I have had no trouble with the installation or development. Now feel that I''d like to use svn to get edgerails to be able to use nifty features such as RJS. Some of the threads on the subject talk about svn:externals in the vendor directory. This means I''d have to do this for each project? Can some one please tell me how to manage a svn edgerails version on my machine which can be shared between all projects? I am the only user on the machine and so installing it in /home/me won''t be a problem. The question is how will the edgerails co-exist with the gem installed global rails? If I say rails some_new_app who will create the project ...or more importantly how can I choose which installation to use for a particular project? Can I do something like... /usr/bin/rails for the gem installed one vs. /home/bin/rails for edge rails? How can I setup the environment so that rails pulls in all the correct libs and dependencies which currently are managed by the gem package (I think).
