I just got an interesting repository from github and I have been trying

me but I do not understand how to fix it.
There are much, much better ways to learn Rails than finding interesting GitHub projects. GitHub contains many jewels, and it is also nothing but a big backup server. Don't expect every project there to be fully productized!
For example, when I tried "magic_the_gathering", I could not get past this:
$ rake db:migrate:reset
...
undefined method `files' for ImportCards:Module
Now notice that all the files have the same times stamp, I suspect from last year, and all the files have only one version, so maybe we are looking at something that someone got working on their own desktop (with a stray 'files' field in their database!) and then tossed onto GitHub and never got back to!
Ask the author if she or he wants to return to this project...
