rbenv 0.4.0

on GitHub

New features

• rbenv now prefers .ruby-version files to .rbenv-version files
  for specifying local application-specific versions. The
  .ruby-version file has the same format as .rbenv-version but is
  compatible with other Ruby version
  managers.
• Deprecated ruby-local-exec and moved its functionality into the
  standard ruby shim. See the ruby-local-exec wiki
  page for
  upgrade instructions.
• Modified shims to include the full path to rbenv so that they can be
  invoked without having rbenv's bin directory in the $PATH.
• Reworked rbenv help so that usage and documentation is stored as a
  comment in each subcommand, enabling plugin commands to hook into
  the help system.
• Added support for full completion of the command line, not just the
  first argument.
• Added rbenv --version for printing the current version of rbenv.
• Added /usr/lib/rbenv/hooks to the plugin hook search path.

Other changes and bug fixes

• Sped up rbenv init by avoiding rbenv reinitialization and by
  using a simpler indexing approach.
• Updated installation instructions for Zsh and Ubuntu users.
• Fixed rbenv which and rbenv prefix with system Ruby versions.
• Changed rbenv exec to avoid prepending the system Ruby location to
  $PATH to fix issues running system Ruby commands that invoke other
  commands.
• Changed rbenv rehash to ensure it exits with a 0 status code under
  normal operation, and to ensure outdated shims are removed first
  when rehashing.
• Modified rbenv rehash to run hash -r afterwards, when shell
  integration is enabled, to ensure the shell's command cache is
  cleared.
• Removed use of the += operator to support older versions of Bash.
• Adjusted non-bare rbenv versions output to include system, if
  present.
• Improved documentation for installing and uninstalling Ruby
  versions.
• Fixed rbenv versions not to display a warning if the currently
  specified version doesn't exist.
• Fixed an instance of local variable leakage in the rbenv shell
  function wrapper.
• Changed rbenv shell to ensure it exits with a non-zero status on
  failure.
• Fixed rbenv which to account for path entries with spaces.
• Changed rbenv init to accept option arguments in any order.
