Set default version of gem in defaults file

[sonxurxo]

How can I specify the default version of a gem in the defaults file?

It seems that i reads gems as individual strings, so I can't see the way to set something like

gems:
- mysql2, '~> 0.3.18'

Currently I have an issue with Rails 4.1.2 and mysql2 0.4.1, and I like to switch back to a previous version of mysql2 gem with no luck. The same happens when trying to specify a github source for a gem.

Is there a way to achieve this, or should I first create a template and modify it?

You could create a recipe instead of a gem. It's a bit of an overhead, but hey, no additional template editing. :)

Yes this would be a nice enhancement. I'll keep it in mind but it's not a top priority.

In the meantime, I've corrected the problem with the mysql gem:
