<p dir="auto">That's fair. If a contributor doesn't use <code class="notranslate">chruby</code>, <code class="notranslate">rbenv</code>, <code class="notranslate">rvm</code>, or <code class="notranslate">ruby-lsp</code> (may be others) this won't do anything for them. That said, <code class="notranslate">chruby</code> + <code class="notranslate">ruby-install</code>, <code class="notranslate">rbenv</code>, and <code class="notranslate">rvm</code> are most of the most popular Ruby development setups so I think a decent number of contributors may benefit from having a checked-in <code class="notranslate">.ruby-version</code>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">After rbenv injects itself into your PATH at installation time, any invocation of <code class="notranslate">ruby</code>, <code class="notranslate">gem</code>, <code class="notranslate">bundler</code>, or other Ruby-related executable will first activate rbenv. Then, rbenv scans the current project directory for a file named <code class="notranslate">.ruby-version</code>. If found, that file determines the version of Ruby that should be used within that directory. Finally, rbenv looks up that Ruby version among those installed under <code class="notranslate">~/.rbenv/versions/</code>.</p>

<p dir="auto">Additionally you might want to list your preferred ruby version in a <code class="notranslate">.ruby-version</code> file stored in your project folder. This would cause automatic switch to selected ruby whenever you enter the folder.</p>
