- as root, create /root/samba_credentials (get it from another machine), and chmod 400 on it
- configure git

cd && mkdir development && cd development
git clone bitpost.com:development/scripts.git
cd && ln -s development/scripts scripts

- set up config repo (remember we need files in git and symlinks to them from the system, YES THIS SUCKS, GIT!)

- set up .bashrc - see another machine's as an example; use the common parts at top and bottom; make sure to update script path
- clone mania!
clone_dev_repos # scripts need clone, clone needs scripts, might take a couple runs
- download boost, symlink to /home/m/development/boost, build with my script
- run qtcreator, load CMakeLists.txt files for important projects, and configure release/debug projects
- Install Scala (Java then sbt then use nop-util to build Causam project)
