dtognazzini / require_gemfile_example Goto Github PK

Hi @dtognazzini I'm still interested in understanding this use case better. I'm raising an issue here to avoid blowing out the conversation on rubygems/bundler-features#65 any further. I can post a summary there when we reach a good point.

In this specific case, I probably would not create Gemfiles for the child gems at all. I generally find that one Gemfile per git repo is a good rule of thumb. Bundler searches up through the directory tree for the closest Gemfile, so something like cd engines/blorgh && bundle exec rake still works.

Is there a down side that I'm missing?
