chroot is not really the same thing... ie it's not really a standard or normal way of having Rake tasks globally available... ie I can't use it that way regularly. Rakefile in / does work i guess, but makes me think when i said 'globally available' i really meant 'per-user'.

Still no comment from the great and benevolent leader Jim... ;)

chroot to ~, or put Rakefile in / also works...

As much as I'd like sake with less overhead, i think this already works in some fashion, except for across drives on win32.

Hey all,
Just wanted to run this by the list....
Is anybody adverse to me implementing basic 'sake' functionality?
sake is a system-wide rake, and basically just reads the rake tasks from ~/.sake (ok - it does a fair bit more - sorry Chris for denegrating your good work! ;)

I suggest having a (optional) ~/.rake which is only read if no other rake file is found (or a command line option is added).

This means you could have rake tasks for general stuff.
E.g.
rake system:clean_temp_files

Sake implements a lot of other functionality, reading tasks from websites, internal server for serving tasks, but the basic functionality could be a good fit for pulling into rake.

Want to run this by the list before I get started, so I don't implement and find that it's rejected.

Best,
