Rubygems is nice way to manage dependencies, but it’s a little messy
when it comes to updating and developing gems, You has to constantly
rebuild & push it.
And the ability to use :path option in Bundler’s Gemfile also doesn’t
solve the problem, because:
- You has to change source code - Gemfile
- If there’s multiple application with multiple gems - You have to
change lots of lines in lots of Gemfiles.
FakeGem solves this problem, it makes any directory looks like gem, no
need in code changes.
