I think we are better off leaving sudo outside of the documented way of installing gems (activerecord, actionpack, …).

We don’t want newbies to think that sudo is required or, even worse, than they actually have to type [sudo] gem install.

In most scenarios, sudo is not needed to install gems, and people who do need it, probably already know about it.

What do you think? 😁

(on a side note… do we still want to keep some README as rdoc and others as markdown?)

@rafaelfranca are you sure you don't mean that everything else should be markdown? 😔

Yes. The README are used to generate the rdoc documentation

Yes, but sdoc now supports markdown: in fact you can see the result of ActiveJob’s README.md here: http://edgeapi.rubyonrails.org/files/activejob/README_md.html
