How to get an awesome neovim setup that runs tests asynchronously in a neoterm split

Example

brew install neovim/neovim/neovim

What this?

So one of the painful points of using docker on OS X is that you need to run a virtualbox VM, which often suffers from performance issues. With xhyve, a OS X virtualization system, and docker-machine-xhyve you can now have docker use the native OS X hypervisor to run containers.

No more dealing with virtualbox shenanigans!

In this script, I've also set up a way to autoconfigure terminal sessions to load docker's environment vars (dependent on docker-machine) so you do not have to run eval $(docker-machine env whatever) every time you open a new terminal window.

Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Custom recipe to get OS X 10.11 El Capitan running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. This is very similar (and currently mostly the same) as my 10.10 Yosemite setup recipe (as found on this gist https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/0726211d17020a6abc1f). Note that I expect this to change significantly as I install El Capitan several times.

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. On average, I reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between distros.

This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.

You are encouraged to fork this and modify it to your heart's content to match your own needs.

This is pretty simple snippet to get API Token of a user , lets say "MYUser" in jenkins.
its pretty useful when you are working with 'jenkins-job-builder' to update jobs in jenkins, and you need to get the api token which JJB needs inorder to update jobs to ..
run this code in either jenkins script console , or as i prefer, in form of init.groovy.
so when jenkins master starts, i create a user for JJb.
after that i get the token right away and pass it to my JJB jobs folder to file 'jenkins_jobs.ini' :)_ .

git log --name-only | grep php --exclude=trunk | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -n 25 > churn.txt


This one looks like an odd ball but what it does is:
    - looks at the git log file, retrieving just the filenames;
    - greps to extract those filenames, excluding anything from the old SVN /trunk structure;
    - sorts the list of files to get the duplicates together;
    - eliminates the duplicates but keeps a count of them;
    - resorts the file names by that count; and
