Question

Given this .rvmrc

rvm install 1.9.2-p290

Every time I cd I get

Already installed ruby-1.9.2-p290.
To reinstall use:

  rvm reinstall 1.9.2-p290

I only want to see output if rvm installs a ruby. I do not want to see the above help message every time I cd. Is there a --quiet flag?

PS: If only the above error message was written to stderr, then I could just use output redirection ..

Answer 1

this looks somehow nonsense – .rvmrc is to use ruby, if you want to make sure that ruby is installed use:

rvm use --install 1.9.2

I removed the -p290 – because ruby already moved forward, new security patches were applied, and it’s basically good idea to use the latest patchlevel.

If you were using gemset then your command should look like:

rvm --create --install use 1.9.2@gemset

Which additionally to installing ruby would also create gemset if nonexisting
