In rails 3 you can use bleeding edge gems like: gem "devise", :git => "git://github.com/plataformatec/devise.git". How do you do that with config.gem in rails 2.3.x?

A:
For that specific example I think you can do:
config.gem 'devise', :source => 'http://github.com/plataformatec/devise.git'

I think source specifies where the gem is hosted. It used to be that you could put github or gemcutter in there. Now it's just gemcutter. Also, when I tried that and ran rake gems:install it didn't install anything new. I'd expect to see it download the project from github like bundle install does in rails 3.

The best option is to use bundler on rails 2.3.x or switch to rails 3.
Heroku's docs are helpful: http://docs.heroku.com/bundler
