-Rake is Ruby Make, a standalone Ruby utility that replaces the Unix utility 'make', and uses a 'Rakefile' and `.rake` files to build up a list of tasks. In Rails, Rake is used for common administration tasks, especially sophisticated ones that build off of each other.
+Since Rails 5.0+ has rake commands built into the rails executable, `bin/rails` is the new default for running commands.
-You can get a list of Rake tasks available to you, which will often depend on your current directory, by typing `rake --tasks`. Each task has a description, and should help you find the thing you need.

-To get the full backtrace for running rake task you can pass the option `--trace` to command line, for example `rake db:create --trace`.
+You can get a list of bin/rails tasks available to you, which will often depend on your current directory, by typing `bin/rails --help`. Each task has a description, and should help you find the thing you need.

### `about`
-`rake about` gives information about version numbers for Ruby, RubyGems, Rails, the Rails subcomponents, your application's folder, the current Rails environment name, your app's database adapter, and schema version. It is useful when you need to ask for help, check if a security patch might affect you, or when you need some stats for an existing Rails installation.
