Subject: [ruby-core:45493] [ruby-trunk - Feature #4840] Allow returning from require


Issue #4840 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).


Received.  Thanks for quick action!

But, matz said "returning from outside of a method makes me so weird" once.
I'm ok if you want to give it a second try with no change, but I guess matz is not likely to accept it for the same reason.
(Well, but, maybe it isn't so bad way because he sometimes changes his mind)

I have a situation where there is some code in Gitorious like:

unless defined? GitoriousConfig
  # tons of lines here
end

And I would it to look like

return if defined? GitoriousConfig

#tons of lines here

It would be great to allow return from a required file or some other keyword (break, etc or a new one)
