Gem Versioning and Bundler: Doing it Right

Updated . Posted . Visible to the public.

When running an executable, ALWAYS use bundle exec. In some cases, running executables without bundle exec may work, if the executable happens to be installed in your system and does not pull in any gems that conflict with your bundle. However, this is unreliable and is the source of considerable pain. Even if it looks like it works, it may not work in the future or on another machine.
