Looks interesting. It's always been pretty amazing to me that a system like RVM remains so popular when it depends on overriding the operation of basic commands

- syncsynchalt 15y agofor anyone curious, compare to https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/blob/master/scripts/cd https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/blob/master/scripts/cd
- sanderjd 15y agoYeah it's a really interesting demonstration of something that is just so darn useful that you're crazy not to use it (on your development machine), regardless of your complaints with it.
- mhansen 15y agoThat's the main reason I'm not using RVM. I depend on `cd` to work, every time, rock solid, especially when my system is unstable. I can't risk having a dependency or bug in their `cd` script breaking my most commonly used shell command.
- hadis 15y agoSo then what did you use on your development machine to test your ruby apps with till now? What did you use if not RVM? I am happy that RVM exists and made my life as ruby developer much easier even if it overrides 'cd'. Also to note i never had problems with RVM. Your main reason not using RVM is poor, as if there were more options out there till now.

- aneil 15y agoAgree - this seems like an invitation to problems. Are there any known issues with it?
