Drubuntu has a 'site add' functionality, but aside from being limited to Drubuntu it does as a multisite (no thanks) with the site's settings.php and files weirdly symlinked to a directory sitting alongside the download itself. (Ah, i just realize that it probably adds all sites to this one multisite.)

A site that has been upgraded from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 has not even had this code from standard.install in the Standard profile run yet. Can generic mappings like this be easily taken care of in other custom configuration of RDF or should this (plus more?) go in an update hook?

If you have installed Drubuntu (including/especially using my D7-ready sandbox), it is possible that the permissions will not be set correctly on /etc/apache2/sites-available/drubuntu

tail -f /var/log/apache2/error.log had segfaults in it
checking where

Giving that file read access

Need to fix in Drubuntu

1. (Some) Drush scripts writing with no read permissions
2. NetworkManager rewriting /etc/resolv.conf

this line needs to be added at the top via sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 127.0.0.1

See http://data.agaric.com/fixing-network-manager-overwriting-dns for the lasting fix.

For a project named (and with the repository and server user name) 'example'.

For the git pull to work your public key must be in /home/vlad/.ssh/authorized_keys on the test server (simone.mayfirst.org). You can get this value from /home/yourusername/.ssh/authorized_keys. (@Stefan can we in some way give people with access to simone access to use it as the vlad user automatically?)

The local checkout on my computer and the one on the dev server are looking at the same Git repository, but the results of git branch -a (show all remote branches) is very different.

Reason: git pull origin master does not get all the branch and tag information the way git fetch does!

Solution:

git fetch origin

Now git branch -a and git checkout branchicareabout both work.

Code as ingredients, modules as dishes, sites as meals, installation profile as recipe, and restaurants with a menu as providers of distributions (or SaaS, though she doesn't mention that).

That's the takeaway from today's post by Karen Borchert at Agile Approach.
