Thanks because edge_rails requires ActiveResource, and the rake
freeze:edge:rails don't checkout it.

Your options:

A) Use Piston to checkout Rails Edge:

piston import http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk/ vendor/rails

(your code should be under version control)

B) Manually checkout it the missing part

svn co http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk/activeresource vendor/rails

HTH,
