--without-gems gone, bogus warning in rails --help?

WARNING: Only specify --without-gems if you did not use gems to install Rails. Your application will expect to find activerecord, actionpack, and

actionmailer directories in the vendor directory.  A popular way to track
the bleeding edge of Rails development is to checkout from source control
directly to the vendor directory.  See [

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/](http://dev.rubyonrails.org/)

except that when I try to use this argument:

$ ruby vendor/rails/railties/bin/rails --without-gems . invalid option: --without-gems

Is --without-gems still supported? It appears no?

If not, then can we get rid of this bogus warning? I’m happy to submit a patch.

It doesn't seem to be supported, nor does it seem particularly necessary. Please do submit a patch to remove the warning.
