Chef no longer forces `https://rubygems.org`. The `Chef::Config[:rubygems_uri]` default has been changed to +nil. It can now be set to either a string URI or to an array of string URIs. The behavior of setting the source on an individual +resource now overrides the source setting completely and does not inherit the global setting. + +Users that previously relied on the source setting always being additive to "https://rubygmes.org" will find that they need to use +the array form and explicitly add "https://rubygems.org" to their resources. Users can now more easily remove "https://rubygems.org" +either globally or on a resource case-by-case basis. + +The behavior of the `clear_sources` property is now to only add `--clear-sources` and has no side effects on the source options. +>>>>>>> add RELEASE_NOTES on gem_package source changes |
