[Bioc-devel] Bioconductor git-svn bridge is available
Hi all Following Kasper's idea from a couple of months ago: Would it be possible to have the git-svn bridge synchronise a branch other than master? If so, one could use the git subtree command, git subtree split -P minfi -b biocsvn to create a branch 'biocsvn' only containing minfi directory [package]. This branch would then be synchronised over the git-svn bridge. Changes in the biocsvn branch can be merged back into the master branch and the correct directory with git subtree merge -P minfi biocsvn I would also fancy a directory structure as Kasper suggested, where the actual R package is a subdirectory. This would allow for placing extra files such as README.md or Makefile into the root directory and other project related data which shouldn't go into the package, but may be useful, in other directories. As a side effect one can also screw up the git master branch without breaking the devel repository. I'm not a git guru, so maybe I'm missing something here, but it seems feasible. Cheers, Moritz PS. Resent as it bounced from list before.

Thanks everyone, it was worth a question. Perhaps I will figure out how to use submodules. Kasper On Fri, Feb 21, 2014 at 11:45 AM, Dan Tenenbaum <dtenenba at fhcrc.org> wrote:

You might look at using a second git repository and including the minfi package as a git submodule of that second repository. Then, you can keep things in sync, but the minfi repository remains atomic.
I think Sean is correct. Dan

For minfi, I would like my github to be minfi-devel /minfi OTHER SCRIPTS where OTHER SCRIPTS could be notes or test scripts I use for internal development. I then only want to synchronize the minfi-devel/minfi directory with Bioc. Kasper On Sun, Feb 9, 2014 at 9:55 AM, Kasper Daniel Hansen < kasperdanielhansen at gmail.com > wrote:
Seems to work for me; I have now populated my github repo. Thanks for the help, Kasper On Sun, Feb 9, 2014 at 2:35 AM, Dan Tenenbaum < dtenenba at fhcrc.org
