Bash Completion for samba-tool

I noticed that this was missing or difficult to find on the internet, so I had my friendly local AI write one up for me.

It's incomplete at the moment, but I will be updating it with more commands and options as I continue to use samba-tool.

Anyway, hopefully this is helpful to someone.

Scripted Jenkins Plugins install

Jenkins has a very rich catalog of plugins and it's quite easy to install and update them via UI. BTW, when you want to add tons of plugin via UI, it's a fairly long and boring procedure.

Hopefully, mass installation (or update) could be easy using a simple bash script (curl/python required) :

Create a file containing plugins to be installed (or updated), ie iplugins :

mdadm

Glossary:

md: multiple devices

command	description
`cat /proc/mdstat`	show status of all raids
`mdadm --detail /dev/md0`	detailed status of raid md0

Documentation-Driven Development

The philosophy behind Documentation-Driven Development is a simple: from the perspective of a user, if a feature is not documented, then it doesn't exist, and if a feature is documented incorrectly, then it's broken.

Document the feature first. Figure out how you're going to describe the feature to users; if it's not documented, it doesn't exist. Documentation is the best way to define a feature in a user's eyes.
Whenever possible, documentation should be reviewed by users (community or Spark Elite) before any development begins.
Once documentation has been written, development should commence, and test-driven development is preferred.
Unit tests should be written that test the features as described by the documentation. If the functionality ever comes out of alignment with the documentation, tests should fail.
When a feature is being modified, it should be modified documentation-first.
When documentation is modified, so should be the tests.
