Gave a shot to the new Bundler 1.4.0RC1 during the weekend and found out it now supports gem installation in parallel. To invoke you need to pass --jobs
parameter with number of threads you want it to run – for me the best performance was achieved by specifying the number physical CPU cores.
I've tested on the AppFab app. In my case (CPU with 2-core i7 with HT) the speedup was 50%. I've also tried with a number greater than the number of physical cores but the performance was 15%-20% worse.

If you have a commit and you want to see in what branches is is included, you have to write this:
git branch -r --contains [COMMIT-SHA]
-r is for remote
wkhtmltopdf
hangs on mac during cucumber unless we click on it. The main reason is with the version we use which is 0.11.0_rc1 and in out app/bin we have another version and it is a known issue with these versions. The fix is to go to 0.9.9, to downgrade the version we installed earlier using brew:
* brew uninstall wkhtmltopdf
* brew update
* brew versions wkhtmltopdf
* if you see output like
* `0.9.9 git checkout 6e2d550 /usr/local/Library/Formula/wkhtmltopdf.rb`
then `cd /usr/local`

Instead of:

@user.role.should eql('admin')
end
it "should be valid" do
@user.valid?.should be_true
end
Do:
it { @user.role.should eql('admin') }
it { @user.valid?.should be_true}
Try to stick to one expectation per test block, diverge in exceptional circumstrances, so instead of:

Go to lib folder and use bundler to generate main files for a gem:
$ bundle gem test_gem
create test_gem/Gemfile
create test_gem/Rakefile
create test_gem/LICENSE

create test_gem/test_gem.gemspec
create test_gem/lib/test_gem.rb
create test_gem/lib/test_gem/version.rb

Regularly, but at least before merging your feature branches, rebase them to get rid of "fix typo" and "wip" commits.
Let's say you do a git rebase -i HEAD~~~~
and have this commit history:
pick 1d1e1f My Feature
pick 2d2e2f My Feature - wip
pick 3d3e3f My Feature - fix typo
pick 4d4e4f My Other feature
Change it to use fixup
for those commits that should be merged into the one before ...
This is how we name branches :
<team>/<story>-<id>
(features)fix/<team>/<story>-<id>
(bugs)story
is an dash-delimited version of the story name, and id
the Pivotal story number.
Examples :
supply/belvilla-naming-1234567
fix/tripadvisor/property-syncing-3256674
integration/geo/boroughs
