welding in a virtual unix root for windoze
since windows is too dumb to have a top-level root folder, we need to rely on the virtualization environment that is getting us the features we rely on, which usually come from unix (or linux). the toolsets used in the past for this include MSYS, Cygwin, and possibly others. this release is starting to support Cygwin and others will be added as time permits.

branchy recurses!
yeah!
now a more expected behavior is exhibited if current directory has several repositories under it; each repo below or at current dir will be found (subject to depth limit).

resurrecting the gnu c++ build on windows
this removes the visual studio compiler support, which was a nasty bit of glue and tacks.
we're moving to commodity gcc for our builds, which means we can leave behind a lot of ugly special casing for microsoft's bent way of doing things.

cleaner time synch crontab
since the two lines are alternates, it made sense to make that clearer, so i did.
moving out this other update system time crontab to see if i still need it.

had to hard code path to which
on some hosts, which is a function which hoses up our careful de-aliasing approach (putting a backslash in front).
now we're stuck with the semi-official location of expecting which in /usr/bin/which

simple pattern for user stories in scrum
not quite a document, but this is the archetypal user story format.
e.g. "as a standard user of the yoyodyne website, i'd like to have my
profile available on the site, so that i can check my records and
update them."

new doc with sign for a recycling bucket
very forceful language indeed.
also, the document_templates folder needs to be renamed. none are actual templates, although they are blank things i like to print out. maybe they're just "documents"? hmmm, unsatisfying.

tectonic tribulations edition: host preparation
needed for a bit; just automates a lot of separate install instructions.
planning to support windows with apt-cyg and mac with brew, but those steps are kinda hosed still.
is_feisty_up lets a caller know if the system is initialized yet or not, which was needed in prep_feisty_host.
functions have a couple changes, esp. a better whichable that now returns an error code instead of just not echoing text.
