[Bioc-devel] Maintenance of MetaNeighbor package

Hi Nitesh,



That is confirmed for both me and Manthan (who was a computational

science developer in my lab).



Cheers,



Jesse

Hi Jesse, Manthan, Nitesh,

I wrote an e-mail earlier this week to Bioconductor support to take over

maintenance of the MetaNeighbor package. Nitesh nicely offered to help me
with the task, but would like to make sure that everyone agrees first. Can
you please briefly confirm the change by answering this email?

Thanks everyone,

Best,

Stephan

Hi Stephan,

First, I?d like you to cc Dr. Jesse Gillis and also Manthan so we know

that everyone is in agreement.

I can help you with the permissions on the Bioconductor repo. Before you

get permissions you will only be able to fetch using the HTTP protocol, i.e

git remote set-url upstream

https://git.bioconductor.org/packages/MetaNeighbor

git fetch ?all

Once you get the permissions you can modify the remote to use the SSH

protocol instead.

Best,

Nitesh

Hi,

My name is Stephan Fischer, I'm a postdoc at CSHL with Dr Jesse Gillis

and I'm currently maintaining the internal version of the MetaNeighbor

package. The Bioconductor version of the package was previously

maintained by Manthan Shah, who left the lab about a year ago. I would

like to take over the maintenance of the MetaNeighbor package on

Bioconductor and sync it with our internal version. Here is what I would

like to do:

 * Change of Github repository: Manthan hosted his own version of

   MetaNeighbor on a personal Github to sync with Bioconductor. I would

   rather use the Gillis lab Github instead. If I understand correctly,

   this should not be too much of an issue, since the two repositories

   have a shared history (Manthan forked the Gillis lab repo).

 * Change of permission: I set the bioconductor URL upstream of the

   Gillis lab repo, but when I try to fetch, I get a warning that I

   don't have the right permissions. At a glance I could not find how

   the permission system works. Would it be possible to update

   permissions so that I (and maybe other lab members) can access the

   Bioconductor repo?

Thanks for your help!

Best,

Stephan
