Overwrite untracked files in current branch from a remote branch

In a similar vein to git reset --hard feature/weavils you can just overwrite untracked working files (typically left over from branch experiments) which are part of the remote branch you're pulling like this:

git reset --hard origin/feature/weavils

Normally, if you tried git checkout feature/weavils you'd get warnings like untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge, so hit them with the --hard hammer instead.

[T]he difference between a bad programmer and a 
good one is whether he considers his code or his 
data structures more important. Bad programmers 
worry about the code. Good programmers worry about 
data structures and their relationships.

Typing vagrant from the command line will display a list of all available commands.

Be sure that you are in the same directory as the Vagrantfile when running these commands!

Creating a VM

• vagrant init -- Initialize Vagrant with a Vagrantfile and ./.vagrant directory, using no specified base image. Before you can do vagrant up, you'll need to specify a base image in the Vagrantfile.
• vagrant init <boxpath> -- Initialize Vagrant with a specific box. To find a box, go to the public Vagrant box catalog. When you find one you like, just replace it's name with boxpath. For example, vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64.

Starting a VM

• vagrant up -- starts vagrant environment (also provisions only on the FIRST vagrant up)
