The README highlights a deliberately small design: update PATH and RubyGems environment variables, support bash and zsh, default to system Ruby, and keep the implementation around 100 lines. chruby's README frames its design through anti-features: it does not hook cd by default, does not install executable shims, does not regenerate shims after gem installation, and does not require Rubies to live in the user's home directory. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The official README documents Homebrew installation, source installation, Arch AUR, Fedora Copr, FreeBSD ports, and pairing with ruby-install or ruby-build. The supplied package facts also show Homebrew, MacPorts, and Nix packaging. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users source chruby.sh from shell startup files and optionally source auto.sh to switch versions by reading .ruby-version files in the current or parent directories. Non-standard Ruby install directories can be appended to the RUBIES shell array. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren chruby matters because it is the small-tool answer to heavier Ruby version managers. It plays well with package managers because it separates installing Ruby builds from selecting one in the shell, which keeps version switching inspectable and avoids shim directories. ### Zeitleiste - 2012: Repository created and v0.0.1 tag published. - 2012: v0.1.x releases established the shell-based switcher. - 2013: v0.3.x line matured around auto-switching and compatibility. - 2023: v0.3.9 released. - 2025: Repository metadata shows continued maintenance activity. ### Related projects - Related projects include ruby-install, ruby-build, RVM, rbenv, rbfu, RubyGems, Bundler, JRuby, Rubinius, and MagLev. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
