5. the VM would deploy, and apply the recipes, it would then kick you back a git repo to pull of all the recipes that ran to get your stack up and running (postgres, passenger, ruby installation etc etc).
6. You can then alter anything you want via that repo; then with a simple git push, the changes would be applied to your VM
1. sign up for site
2. click "deploy rails app"
