how are you not getting an output line error each time your on using the CLI outside a git repository directory?

An error like "fatal: git diff [--no-index] takes two paths"

If you liked Blink, you should read the counter-point book called "Think!: Why Crucial Decisions Can't Be Made in the Blink of an Eye" by Michael R. LeGault, for some perspective on the other side of the coin.

iTunes integration is definitely important, but my guess is that an app will be written that allows syncing of music via "the cloud" somehow

Re: Heroku | The Big Kickoff

Yes, we have run across many many requests for a tool like this, and it seems there is a large need. Half of the comments on this thread, for example, are evidence of it.

Sure some developers like controlling their dev environment - I know we do. But we also recognize that there is a cost to that. Rails is about convention over configuration in your code, so by default you don't have to do anything, and everything just works. We think the hosting/deployment process should be the same way. Of course our solution isn't going to work for everyone, but we want to have solid default conventions so you can just get up and running in one click. We also think there are a lot of benefits to be had by having the editor and the running application integrated tightly together on the same machine. More about this in a later post...

not trying to attack at all here, just genuinely curious

Why do you feel that there is an important niche like this that needs to be filled? Have you run across requests for a tool like this anywhere.

It definitely looks like a nice app and good project you guys have done, but it seems to me that Rails is one of the easiest development environments to get started with; and most rails developers actually like fully controlling their dev environment, no?
