I'm happy to announce that my db_console plugin for Rails has just been added to Rails Core.

If you work in a team on a Rails project, chances are that you and your team mates occasionally create identically-numbered migrations. Renumbering a migration that you're working on is a pain, unless you're using this handy 'renumber_migrations' plugin.

Ever tried using 'psql' or 'mysql' on the command-line to connect to your Rails database, only to find you forgot how to specify all those '-u' and '-h' parameters?

This plugin provides handy rake tasks for running DB console programs for the various databases in your database.yml. It supports postgresql, mysql, sqlite and sqlite3 connections.
