Mac OSX with Homebrew, iTerm, Vim (split terminal with vim on top and repl on bottom is pretty nice), Atom (for big projects), git, GitLab, Firefox browser. That's about all of my non-language-specific stack.

#12I mainly use emacs, gcc, g++, git, gdb, plus bash, sed, egrep, tr etc. avrdude.
I do use Xcode, but can't say I enjoy it much. If I could use Emacs more easily within Xcode I would be much happier since I do enjoy the dynamic environment of the Mac OS with ObjC. llvm is pretty good.

#13Java Dev on Win7
Intellij Pro, Cygwin with Emacs, Git command line, sometimes SourceTree (though Intellij Git is almost as feature complete).
Tortoise on projects still using Subversion.
Firefox with Firebug, LiveHttpHeaders, and WebDeveloper though more and more Chrome Dev tools.
Usually the standard DB tool depending on database (PGAdmin for Postgres, SqlDeveloper for Oracle, etc.), though Intellij's DB tools are getting 'good enough'.
I'd pay good money for a well developed Emacs keyboard binding for Intellij (similar to Emacs++ for Eclipse)!

#15A new Scala developer: IntelliJ with Scala Plugin Vagrant Atlassian Stash
If you're starting out in Scala I'd recommend you try use the Scala IDE (Eclipse) first until you're reasonably comfortable in the language. Reason being, that Eclipse provides much better feedback regarding types, syntax errors, logic errors and so on. Which is immensely helpful when you start writing not-so-simple FP expressions.
After a month or two in Eclipse then switch to IntelliJ for a much faster, smoother, and intuitive GUI and user experience.
That's the path I followed, imho I can't imagine learning Scala in IntelliJ.
Good luck :)
