Something I've struggled with in my environment recently is using RubyMine/IntelliJ across multiple microservice projects with git and overcommit hooks.
When committing/pulling from a git repo it would often complain about ruby version mismatches, overcommit gem not being installed etc.
After some digging, I finally came across an old bug report in the RubyMine backlog which mimics the behaviors I've been experiencing.
The root cause seems to be RubyMine not respecting the ruby version as set by rvm for each project, and it is in fact using the default system ruby. Once I realized this, the issue symptoms I was seeing started to make a lot of sense!
Some developers have mentioned having more success with rbenv instead of rvm, but haven't seen consensus with that either. Another workaround is to use github for mac desktop application - but the trick is to launch it from the command line from your project root folder with github . so it has the ruby environment loaded. This is a pain too, especially when working on several projects, each with their individual ruby and overcommit version conflicts.
Once I find an acceptable workaround I'll update this post, but hopefully this will get some exposure for others experiencing the same issue, or someone can reach out if they have a better workaround/solution!
