cx_Oracle Installation Instructions

I've had to put cx_Oracle (python Oracle database connector) on macOS and Linux, and both processes were similar but poorly documented on Oracle's website.

These instructions were written and tested using the client 12.1. The instructions for any 12.x are the same, but you may need to change 12_1 to 12_2 in commands if you are using version 12.2, etc.

Instructions

1. Download 64 bit (easy to download 32 by mistake) basic + sdk instantclient from Oracle website (Note: you need an account, I used throwaway email)

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.
