Ok, this makes a bit more sense now for the older versions. Wasn't aware that the "rails:upgrade" was the method to upgrade these days.
So it is not expected that Rails' future upgrades will potentially overwrite any of the files existing in my WC with new versions? I can see this is already not the case with the boot/config.rb. The capability of having a diff/merge/patch tool as an option when running the rails:upgrade could be quite useful, and would lend aide to having to create a tmp file manually and running diff against the two to see what changed. -Nb On 4/10/06 7:10 AM, "David Heinemeier Hansson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Suppose that may be the case for "my" case.
