So t I am using RVM and have set it to use Ruby 1.9.3. I downloaded a tutorial app, but after I run bundle and ‘which ruby’ my machine shows I am using Ruby 1.8.7 for all other projects.

Is this possible? What is bundle actually doing?

Shouldn’t it just use 1.8.7 for just that project?

How can I make the tutorial switch to using 1.9.3 and make it not bundle 1.8.7?

    best way to avoid version switching is to use a .rvmrc,you can create an .rvmrc file in the application’s root directory. RVM recgonizes an .rvmrc file in a directory and loads the gemset specified inside.following is an example for creating an .rvmrc for rails 3.1 using ruby 1.9.3

    echo "rvm ruby193@rails31" > .rvmrc
    

    Using an .rvmrc file means you’ll automatically be using the correct Rails and gem version when you run your application on your local machine. This works best if you create an rvm gemset specifically for your application.
