Thank you for the review.

Noted, thanks.

Good idea.

Ah you noticed this as well, I should have added some notes inline.

I chose to ignore it's dependencies as the developer didn't add it as either a
primary or development dependency in the Rakefile. It's also not a library as
far as I can tell, more of a script used in testing, and not included/invoked
in any of the unit testing.

Plus looking at the gauntlet gem itself it's clearly geared toward library
development rather than providing functionality to a library.

What's the correct approach here, %exclude the script? Add a note about it and
leave dependencies as is?

Will go on the assumption you'd rather it be excluded.
