I previously had ruby 1.9.3-p286 installed with rvm (set as --default). I had a ton of gems installed (globally) for this version.

I installed ruby 1.9.3-p327 today with rvm (and want to set it as the new --default), but I now have to somehow re-download/reinstall all of the ruby gems I had previously in 1.9.3-p286.

Is there any easy way to install all of the gems for p327 that I had previously installed for p286 without manually gem installing each again?

Edit:
On the upgrading page for rvm, it mentions something about copying “gemsets” then running gem update, but I’m not sure what syntax to use for my use case.

    Copying gems It doesn’t require gemsets, as stated. For your case, it would be:

    rvm gemset copy 1.9.3-p286 1.9.3-p327.
