bundle update not performing correctly with git source

[BenMorganIO]

Currently I am using the git method to link to a repo a pull down some specific gems as so:

git "https://github.com/spree/spree.git", branch: "2-4-stable" do
  gem "spree_core"
  gem "spree_api"
  gem "spree_backend"
  gem "spree_sample"
end

This happily install the four spree gems for me, but when I go to bundle update spree_core it doesn't actually update the gem. I end up having to comment out to block, bundle, add the block back in, and do another bundle.

Thoughts?

Sounds like a bug! We’ll investigate when we get the chance.

@BenMorganIO could you help us out with some more info? Paste the output from bundle env into a gist and link to it here. If you are using any private gem servers you might need to check for private info to clean out of the output.

I'm encountering this issue too. I have forked the cucumber gem, updated it this morning, and doing bundle update cucumber is not working.

Here is my bundle env

Also here is the way I wrote the gem line in my Gemfile:

gem 'cucumber', github: 'zedtux/cucumber', branch: 'v1.3.x-bugfix'

[zedtux]

Changing to this fixed the issue:

gem 'cucumber', git: 'https://github.com/zedtux/cucumber.git', branch: 'v1.3.x-bugfix'

I don't know if it's a bug in the previous way of writing the gem line or if changing the Gemfile is forcing bundler to update the git repo...

Arf... reverting to the github: 'zedtux/cucumber' and doing update also forced bundler to update the gem. I would say 'touching' the Gemfile make it working, so there is a bug.
