I'd like to install Jekyll version 1.5.1 (on a Mac). Is it possible to do this? I found something about being able to downgrade, but I find it hard to believe there is no way just to install an older version.

Thanks!

You can specify the exact version in your Gemfile like this:

gem 'jekyll', '1.5.1'

Or install a specific version from the command line:

gem install jekyll -v 1.5.1
