Ranges/Constraints

✅ Ranges are supported.

Valid rangeStrategy values are: bump, widen, pin, replace

Description

The RubyGems team urges gem developers to follow the Semantic Versioning standard for their gem’s versions, but it is not enforced.

Range syntax is similar to npm's but not identical. The main difference is the use of "pessimistic" greater than or equals: ~>
