I have two scripts I use all the time and which have saved me much grief and hair pulling. I was told there were worth sharing so here I am doing just that. :)

See? There's nothing particularly smart about this but I run it every time I start working on something. This goes into ####-USERNAME/bin on your hack and is made executable with chmod ugo+x ~/bin/SCRIPTNAME

The second one just checkouts develop for me on both branches and brings me back to /dw. See alierak's comment for an actual working way of doing this. :)

You can of course modify them to better fit your workflow or use Jeshyr's omnibus script instead. If you have interesting scripts, do share them in the comments please!
