Drush & Drush Make
Drush (the drupal shell) provides a command line interface for Drupal, rapidly speeding up Drupal site building and maintenance tasks. Downloading and installing modules `drush dl`, clearing caches with `drush cc`, creating user accounts with `drush ucrt`, running arbitrary code against your site with `drush scr`, and quickly jumping into a sites database command line interface with 'drush sql-cli' are just some of the day-to-day tasks that Drush can assist with.
Drush make is an extension to drush that can create a ready-to-use drupal site, pulling sources from various locations. It does this by parsing a flat text file (similar to a drupal .info file) and downloading the sources it describes. In practical terms, this means that it is possible to distribute a complicated Drupal distribution as a single text file.
