Resetting the bundler --path

When running bundler install you can pass an option --path:

bundle install --path ./gems

Which will specify where to install the gems. This is a one time option. Everytime you invoke bundle from here on in you’ll see that its using the directory you specificed with the –path variable as the gem directory.

Bundler keeps track of this option in the .bundler/config file in the folder from where bundler was initially run. That file looks like this:

---
BUNDLE_PATH: "./gems"
BUNDLE_DISABLE_SHARED_GEMS: "true"

To reset the gems path back to the default, remove the BUNDLE_PATH line from the bundle/config file.f
