gitbot's Introduction

This folder structure should be suitable for starting a project that uses a database:

Clone the repo
rake generate:migration <Name> to create a migration
rake db:migrate to run it
Create models
... ?
Profit

You may need to fiddle around with remotes assuming that you don't want to push to this one (which you probably don't).
