Hello everyone,

I just wrote a little utility called “numergrate” (short for numerate  
migration files). I think it can be useful for a lot people who are  
using Rails to move migration files around. You can do ruby script/  
numergate 50 before 30 to move migration file #50 to position 29. The  
utility is also integrated with subversion via the svn client.

Please give it a shot and let me know if you have any comments or  
suggestion. The URL is [http://alexle.net/archives/206](http://alexle.net/archives/206)

Looks handy. I’ll check it out next time I need to do a big migration  
renaming.
