other guides the focus of the implementation
Ping-Pong Pairing One person writes the test and the other
writes the implementation. Then you switch.
Tools
Vim & TMUX Shared VIM buffers Persistent terminal session
git pair & git duet Allows for two authors/committers within
GIT github.com/pivotal/git_scripts github.com/meatballhat/git-duet
