Hey all,

Are you supposed to get some type of feedback when running the rake  
rails:update task from a rails shell?

And on that subject, I installed Rails 2.2.2 and then ran the the above  
command, got no feedback and nothing changed. Now when I create a new  
project I find some new files:

initializers/new\_rails\_defaults.rb  
a new folder locales containing a file called en.yml

Not sure if there is anything else that I am not noticing but, should  
these not be created automatically by running something like the update  
task or, should I simply copy and paste these into my current project?

Thanks in advance,  
Schalk
