If you need to install your gems without extra documentation, use flags –no-rdoc and –no-ri
Example:
$ gem install --no-rdoc --no-ri rails

Thank you for this information. I’m certain it’s covered elsewhere, but too often simple tasks such as this are mired down in endless bullshit.
@ Daniel Waite – it’s in the gem help – type gem help install =)
Thanks for this! It takes way too long to install the rails documentation.
