[Bioc-devel] Bioconductor git-svn bridge is available

Leave "Payload version" alone (it should be "application/vnd.github-v3+form")

All it says is

"An error occurred creating the git-svn bridge."


Safari 7.0.3 on OS X Mavericks




I know nothing about debugging html / javascript stuff, but there is
nothing reported in the "error console" in Safari.


This is for re-creating a bridge that used to exist: minfi.

The issue has been fixed and your bridge has been created. Thanks for the report.

I am trying to re-create my git-svn bridges, but the website throws
an error when I do it. Not sure why. I am trying to let svn win.

What is the error?

Also, what is your OS (+ version + distro) and browser ( + version)?
I have a report that there are are problems creating bridges on
Linux using firefox and chrome but that it worked for this user with
firefox on windows (and for me on Mac with several browsers). I'll
do some testing.


If there is a javascript console available, can you see if there is
an error there? If not, no worries, just let me know what config
you're using.

Dan

Best,
Kasper

Another use case where this is useful is that newer packages may
still need
to use the 'devel' BioC branch as something of a 'release' branch
since a
natural release cycle is faster than the BioC cycle (I think of the
BioC
devel branch that way for some packages).

This way the master branch on git can be the 'no guarantees'
branch,
and
another branch on git is synchronized with the devel branch on svn.

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.

Just a FYI: Using .Rbuildignore you can still add Makefile and
other
files to the repository that won't go into the package
build/install/check/distro/.... This works regardless of
Subversion
of Git.

Right. But if you wanted to structure your repo like this:

- README
- package/
DESCRIPTION
etc
- otherstuff/

where the actual R package is in the 'package' directory, then
.Rbuildignore would not help.

This (I think) is what the original request was about.

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.

I doubt this is possible given the atomic nature of a git
repository.
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.

Question: is it possible to synchronize a subset of a

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.

Yes, see screenshot

I
get a
