Modifying the Ransack gem

Question

I am using the Ransack gem, but I want to modify it. So I am copying the Ransack gem folder from the C drive to the vendor/plugins/static_gem folder and try to edit it, but when I start the server it gives me error as:

    D:/Shrikant/Ruby Projects/fIT_Arms/vendor/static_gem/ransack-0.7.0/ransack.gemsp
     ec:25:in ``': No such file or directory - git ls-files (Errno::ENOENT)

        from script/rails:5:in `<main>'

It gives me an error at these lines

s.files         = `git ls-files`.split("\n")
  s.test_files    = `git ls-files -- {test,spec,features}/*`.split("\n")
  s.executables   = `git ls-files -- bin/*`.split("\n").map{ |f| File.basename(f) }
  s.require_paths = ["lib"]

What can I do?

not sure if this is the issue but try removing the space in your path "D:/Shrikant/Ruby Projects/fIT_A" and try again

ie rename folder Ruby Projects to ruby_projects..

What is your dev environment
