RVM, capistrano sftp, scp and .bashrc October 22, 2010

I'm used to using RVM locally, but have just started with using it on remote machines.  One thing that is annoying is having to type `rvm use X` when wanting to switch to the rvm ruby.  So, one thing that i went and did was add such a line to the .bashrc which worked.  The only weird thing is that this breaks scp transfers to the box (the only output is rvm's notification that it is using the correct version of ruby!!)  So, the fix is to use RVM's rvm --default X and then remove the line from the .bashrc so scp will start working again.  This is easy enough to figure out when you are scping from the command line, but when it is a tool like capistrano performing the transfer, all of this feedback is hidden =/
