Extend Rails' defaut set of rake tasks to add a db:bootstrap task. Similar to db:reset but doesn't use the schema file. Useful for testing your complete migration set (i.e. simulating a fresh setup) or for resetting your seed data in development.

db.rake

namespace :db do
  desc "Completely tears down the database, rebuilds it from scratch using your migrations (i.e. ignoring the current schema file), re-seeds the database based on the current environment, and finally prepares the test database"
  task :bootstrap => ["db:drop", "db:create", "db:migrate", "db:seed", "db:test:prepare"]
end

Currently getting an error during the db:seed portion - rails/arel#124. Not sure when or where this started happening, but seems to be coming from Arel.
