1. Uncomment vb.gui=true in the vagrantfile and log in from there. solves a lot of problems, can also sudo reboot from there.
2. To unlock 'guru meditation' mode: navigate to the virtualbox folder and: VBoxManage controlvm <vm> poweroff (notice this the virtualbox full vm name and not the vagrant name)
3. Upgrade to virtualbox 4.16 ,solves 4.14 problems with vagrant 1.2.2
4. Add more memory to the virtualbox (not more than the host machine has)
5. check the bios setting allowing virtualization is enabled

#!/bin/sh
#Inspired by https://gist.github.com/jbergantine/3870080
#Since every `git pull` is actually a merge. We can use it to automaticly run basic Django tasks after pulling from the upstream master branch (or any other)
#Notice: This won't run at git fetch. since fetch doesn't merge anything
#Installation:
#	copy this script with the name:`post-merge.sh` to your project root folder
#	symlink it to the ./git/hooks/post-merge: `ln post-merge.sh .git/hooks/post-merge
 
#You should have bash (windows users, means cygwin/mingw anything that works for you
#Based on the instructions here: https://oknesset-devel.readthedocs.org/en/latest/workflow.html#before-coding
