Install OSX Parallels version 10/11/12/13 tools on Ubuntu server guest

Have tested these instructions successfully under Ubuntu 16.04LTS and 14.04LTS.

Create Ubuntu server instance under Parallels (obviously).
Start VM, goto Actions - Install Parallels Tools... to mount the ISO image.
- Note: if this fails, or updating tools for an existing guest you can do the following:
- Goto Devices > CD/DVD 1 > Connect Image....
- Select the following ISO image: /Applications/Parallels Desktop/Contents/Resources/Tools/prl-tools-lin.iso.
- This will mount the tools CD image.

UPDATE: A better way! (August 2015)

As pointed out by @johntyree in the comments, using git reflog is easier and more reliable. Thanks for the suggestion!

 $ git reflog

3970d09 HEAD@{2}: checkout: moving from b-fix-build to develop
1ed7510 HEAD@{3}: commit: got everything working the way I want
70b3696 HEAD@{4}: commit: upgrade rails, do some refactoring

	The PCRE engine (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) is what BBEdit and TextWrangler use.

	Items I'm unsure of are marked '# PCRE?'. The list while fairly comprehensive is not complete.
