[Capistrano] Re: Mangle module loadpath

[Jamis Buck]

Cap 2.1 comes with a git module prepackaged. Is the default one insufficient?

In answer to your question, though, you want __FILE__, not FILE. __FILE__ is a built-in constant that will always return the name of the current source file.

I'm trying to use the Git SCM module for capistrano from
http://scie.nti.st/2007/9/4/capistrano-2-0-with-git-shared-repository
and added "$: << File.dirname(FILE) + ’/../lib’" to the top of by
config/deploy.rb file according to the comment by topfunky in order to
put the git.rb extension in my rails' lib directory.

When I put that command at the top of the file I get this bug:

./config/deploy.rb:1:in `load': uninitialized constant

cap:4
       from /usr/local/bin/cap:19:in `load'
       from /usr/local/bin/cap:19

It seems that it is messing up the load path such that ruby can't find
the File class, but how can I get capistrano to find

git.rb:
module Capistrano
 module Deploy
   module SCM
     module Git
......

while placing the git.rb file in my rails' lib directory and still
have the File class accessible?

Thanks
