To use an older version than the latest you have installed, just wrap the version number in underscores:

rails _1.2.1_ myproject

Do you use RVM or any Ruby version manager?

EDIT:

My bad, actually, you were talking about rails. So, to answer your question, you can do rails _5.0.x_ new.

You can find more details on this post and this one.

You can use that command without patch number like this: rails _4.2_ new project_name

I checked it on my machine. I had rails 4.2.0 and 4.2.5. With that command it created the project with rails 4.2.0

Thanks, actually I wanted to get the most upgraded version in 5.0, but it does not make sense because I have to install the gem before. – sidney Mar 05 '17 at 15:44
Glad to help anyway! – VAD Mar 05 '17 at 15:45
