Hi,

I want to use the latest trunk version for my rails application, I see  
some cool new features and I cannot wait to use them 😃

How do I accomplish that? Thanks in advance 😃

I tried this:  
svn co [http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk](http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk)

This only gives me those files?  
$ ls  
Rakefile actionwebservice activesupport railties  
actionmailer activerecord cleanlogs.sh release.rb  
actionpack activeresource pushgems.rb

How do I force my application to use these new versions of rails?

check out the rails trunk into vendor/rails in your app  
or, run rake rails:freeze:edge
