They are generated from the same diff-operation though, and split by hand. Only the first section (require statements) overlap.
I have written the build server used in the bank (Jyske Bank, 3rd largest in Denmark, about ~100 Java EE developers at present) to handle building of our EE applications.
Being a bank, we need strict tracking of, er, pretty much everything :)
RubySSPI allowed me to make a (Java) client-server authentication/authorization system, where the person starting a build can be authenticated (via the existing Windows login).
I needed to access the Windows SSPI API programatically, and using ruby was less of a hassle than using C (via JNI).
RubySSPI already had half of the necessary calls, and it was easy to add the missing elements and test that it worked. Very nice :)
