[ANN] RubyGems Beta 0.9.4.7

[Eric Hodel]

RubyGems 0.9.4.7 is a beta release for the upcoming 0.9.5 which adds
several new features and fixes several bugs.

To upgrade to the beta:

gem update --system --source http://segment7.net/

A tar.gz and .zip of the beta can also be downloaded for manual
installation:

http://segment7.net/temp/rubygems-0.9.4.7.tgz
http://segment7.net/temp/rubygems-0.9.4.7.zip

Unpack either and run `ruby setup.rb`.

To file bugs:

http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=add&group_id=126&atid=575

When filing a bug, `gem env` output will be helpful in diagnosing the
issue.

If you find a bug where RubyGems crashes, please provide debug
output. You can do that with `gem --debug the_command`. For example:

$ gem --debug unknown_command
Exception `RuntimeError' at [...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:114 -
Unknown command unknown_command
ERROR: While executing gem ... (RuntimeError)
Unknown command unknown_command
[...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:114:in `find_command'
[...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:103:in `process_args'
[...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:74:in `run'
[...]/rubygems/gem_runner.rb:39:in `run'
/usr/local/bin/gem:22

== Changes Since 0.9.4.6

* Backwards compatibility changes to the RubyGems index
* Ruby 1.8.2 compatibility bugfix
* -V now enables verbose instead of -v to avoid collision with --
version/-v
* RubyGems now generates .bat files instead of .cmd files
