Merge remote-tracking branch 'pr/225' into develop
Fix install issue and update the documentation During the rails 4 update db:migrate stopped working because the way couchrest loads all models broke. This includes a fix and also updates the install instructions. I tried to separate advanced topics in development from the others by marking the sections (advanced) in doc/DEVELOP.md
