rails ignores Gemfile

Question

My Gemfile looks like this:

source 'https://rubygems.org'
ruby '2.2.2'
gem 'rails', '~> 4.2.1'

# a bunch of stuff that is commented out goes here

group :production do

  # Use Postgres as the database for Active Record
  gem 'pg', '~> 0.18.1'

  # An irrelevant comment
  gem 'rails_12factor', '~> 0.0.3'

  # Use Puma as the server
  gem 'puma', '~> 2.11.2'
end

When I run rails by typing rails server -e development, I see that it is running Puma, even though Puma is not specified for my development environment. If comment out the line that says gem 'puma', '~> 2.11.2', then WEBrick is used (as expected.)

Why is Puma used in the development environment, even when it is not specified as such in the gemfile?

Ten minutes after asking this question, I found this answer which suggested that using bundle install --without production would fix the issue, and it did. I'm going to leave this question here in case anyone else has a similar issue.
