[Bioc-devel] banocc: Bioconductor BUILD error

Hi George,


No problem at all.  We are glad to help and glad you are being so cautious.


I am able to see the successful commit/changes on devel (master branch).  So that has been successful.


You would need to make similar changes to the RELEASE_3_9 branch as your package was failing in both release and devel


release build report:

http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/release/bioc-LATEST/banocc/


So yes the

(Optional) Merge changes to the current release branch
does apply.

A note about these commands:

git merge master

will merge all the files from the current devel branch into the release branch.  Sometime this is okay and recommended but sometimes this is not what you want (if you has been testing features that are in the devel branch but need to correct a bug on release).  Sometimes it's better to checkout the release branch:


git checkout -b <RELEASE_X_Y> upstream/<RELEASE_X_Y>

git pull


but then individually modify and commit changes like you did for the other branch.



However, In this case you should be okay with a merge  -


The current release branch is RELEASE_3_9  (instead of RELEASE_X_Y in the instructions)


Also note the version in the DESCRIPTION file for the RELEASE_3_9 branch will need to be changed.  The current version is 1.8.0 so this should be changed to 1.8.1  and committed before doing


git push upstream RELEASE_3_9



Hopefully this all makes sense.  If something seems unclear don't hesistate to ask.


Cheers,
