Well, Ruby would likely have a different fighting style. Since Summer is alive, she could have taught Ruby some unique skills that she didn't learn in the original story. Maybe a special way of using Crescent Rose that was passed down from Summer. Her relationships with her friends might also be different. She could be more of a leader from the start because she has that strong family support and the confidence that comes with it. Her goals might also shift a bit. Instead of just trying to be a great Huntress like her mother was, she could be focused on living up to her mother's current expectations and working side - by - side with her.
Ruby would be more confident. With her mother there to guide her, she'd have someone to answer all her questions immediately. She wouldn't have to rely solely on Qrow or her own limited experiences. For example, in combat situations, Summer could give her real - time advice, which would make Ruby a more skilled fighter faster.
Ruby's view of family would be more complete. In the original RWBY, she's missing her mother. But in this alternate universe, she has that maternal figure. This would make her more stable emotionally. She might not be as impulsive because she has her mother's wisdom to temper her actions. Also, she could learn about her family history directly from Summer, which would give her a stronger sense of identity.
