bundle-pristine(1) -- Restores installed gems to their pristine condition
=========================================================================
## SYNOPSIS
`bundle pristine`
## DESCRIPTION
`pristine` restores the installed gems in the bundle to their pristine condition
using the local gem cache from RubyGems. For git gems, a forced checkout will be performed.
For further explanation, `bundle pristine` ignores unpacked files on disk. In other
words, this command utilizes the local `.gem` cache or the gem's git repository
as if one were installing from scratch.
Note: the Bundler gem cannot be restored to its original state with `pristine`.
One also cannot use `bundle pristine` on gems with a 'path' option in the Gemfile,
because bundler has no original copy it can restore from.
When is it practical to use `bundle pristine`?
It comes in handy when a developer is debugging a gem. `bundle pristine` is a
great way to get rid of experimental changes to a gem that one may not want.
Why use `bundle pristine` over `gem pristine --all`?
Both commands are very similar.
For context: `bundle pristine`, without arguments, cleans all gems from the lockfile.
Meanwhile, `gem pristine --all` cleans all installed gems for that Ruby version.
If a developer forgets which gems in their project they might
have been debugging, the Rubygems `gem pristine [GEMNAME]` command may be inconvenient.
One can avoid waiting for `gem pristine --all`, and instead run `bundle pristine`.
