A recent version of rubocop added a default cop that forces gems to place their development dependencies in
Gemfile
instead of<gem_name>.gemspec
: rubocop/rubocop#11469Here are the discussions I could find about the two ways of defining gem dev dependencies:
add_development_dependency
rubygems/rubygems#1104My conclusion is that we should disable this cop.
This is for the following reasons:
appraisal
gem, used to test a gem against different versions of its dependenciesMy opinion on this isn't strong though, so if anyone disagrees feel free to make a case for keeping it and I'll probably close this PR.
