rake rails:freeze:edge not working

I agree that it's a little annoying that a standard rake task doesn't work. But why not just clone the GitHub repository in vendor/rails?
rails your_app_name
cd your_app_name/vendor
git clone git://github.com/rails/rails.git
That's it.

While I agree that cloning the github repo is really simple, if thats going to be the recommended method then the rake take should be removed. Considering the rake task was changed to use the zip file when rails moved to github I think it should probably work too - I'm assuming its just a minor mistake in the script that generates the zip not actually pulling from the edge revision and should be relatively easy to fix. From the announcement about rails premiering n github
"If you don’t have git, or don’t enjoy running it on your platform, you need not fear. We’ve set up an automated task to produce a zip file of Rails Edge that’ll be kept up to date all the time: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/archi.... This is also what we’ve made the new rake rails:freeze:edge use."

I agree with twalpole, you should be able to use rails without using git. I think the rake task should download the files directly from github.com.
Attached find a patch which modifies the rake task to use github as download source.

I don't have time to look at it right now but from looking at the source it looks good to me. So +1.

+1. Nice job on getting the tag names correct in the doc string too. Better than the code I was planning on submitting before I came here and found an existing bug report.
