Command `rbenv version-name > .ruby-version` will create an empty `.ruby-version` file
before running `rbenv-version-file`. This causes `rbenv-version-file` to return empty
string which in turn causes `rbenv-version-name` to return `system`.
Ensure size of `.ruby-version` is non-zero as a workaround.
`default` was made legacy back in 2011 with
5be66da9f4 (the command was renamed from
`rbenv-default` to `rbenv-global`, and so the global file was renamed
from `$RBENV_ROOT/default` to `$RBENV_ROOT/global` (the latter taking
precedence)
`global` was then made legacy about a month later in Sep 2011 when the
preferred filename was changed to `$RBENV_ROOT/version`.
Can be used for `.ruby-version` file lookup in the ancestry of a
specific directory. In this mode of operation, global version files
aren't taken into consideration, and the command fails unless a local
version file was found.
It's not that this is a preferred way to set a global version (one
should use `rbenv global <version>` instead), but this fixes the
function purely for correctness: all parent directories should be
scanned, even the root directory.
Fixes#745
finding_local_version_file is extremely slow, when working directory is under the UNC path.
Because //host/.rbenv-version and //.rbenv-version do not exist, but testing them is so slow.
It's the reason to make a serious delay of the response, when the Ruby runs with a current working directory under the UNC path under Cygwin environment.
