<div dir="ltr">Yes, always check it in. Once the dependency tree is
resolved, you want everyone using the same gems until it's actively
changed.</div>

<div dir="ltr">The advice I've always followed is that if you're
building an application you check it in (so you can guarantee that
everyone's developing/testing/running against the same set of
dependencies), but if you're building a library you don't, as you
don't get to control what versions users of your library are
running (other than through the dependency specifications in your
gemspec).

<div dir="ltr">Hello,
<div><br></div>
<div>I have a question regarding Bundler, developing gems, and
Gemfile.lock . It is a question I thought I had the answer to, but
apparently not.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I USED to believe that you do not check in Gemfile.lock, so as
to allow situations during development to occur where your gem is
used with a version of a dependency that you did not expect,
therefore allowing possibly breaking interface changes to
dependencies to be made apparent. This is what Mr. Katz says here,
in 2010: <a href="http://yehudakatz.com/2010/12/16/clarifying-the-roles-of-the-gemspec-and-gemfile/" target="_blank">http://yehudakatz.com/2010/12/<wbr>16/clarifying-the-roles-of-the<wbr>-gemspec-and-gemfile/</a>.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>However, checking the latest bundler docs, here we read
something different: <a href="http://bundler.io/v1.14/guides/creating_gem.html" target="_blank">http://bundler.io/v<wbr>1.14/guides/creating_gem.html</a></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>"By running bundle install, Bundler will generate the
extremely important Gemfile.lock file. This file is responsible for
ensuring that every system this library is developed on has the
exact same gems so it should always be checked into version
control. For more information on this file read “THE GEMFILE.LOCK”
section of the bundle install manpage."</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Que?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>What do y'all think? Follow the old advice, or the new
advice?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks</div>
