Hello,
I learned that my pull request that was part of Rails Issue #1866 wasn't incorporated into the Rails 3-0 stable branch. So I'm creating the fix again, but I decided to include a test to ensure that it works properly. I created a sample Rails application called SampleIssue1866.
In the Gemfile of that sample application, I have the following:
gem 'rails', :path => "~/Github/rails"
Someone on the #RubyOnRails channel, told me that it was sufficient to have the :path option in my Gemfile, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I thought that I would need to add "~/Github/rails" to my load path. Any ideas why this isn't working for me?
