[Bioc-devel] Confusion with how to maintain release/devel files on local computer.

Thank you very much for all your assistance. Unfortunately, git bash must be run as administrator,
otherwise user won?t be able to change the pwd from partition C to another partition (It will remain in
the previous directory on partition C). This is why I had to run it as administrator.


Best regards,
Arman

Thank you for the detailed description, it is much easier to understand
what is going on. I have made some comments below

Likely you need, as a regular user, to regenerate your ssh key pair, and
to re-submit the public key to Bioconductor. Alternatively, perhaps as a
regular user you already have an ssh key pair, and you can submit the
public key part of the key pair. Remember that this will take at least
24 hours to process.
This workflow means that you want to maintain only the Bioconductor
version of your repository, you do not want to maintain the github
version of your repository that you used during package submission.
ok, all of the above looks good. You cloned the repository, and your ssh
key was recognized.
This step is not required. It is not part of the workflow you cited.
Earlier, when you issued the command 'git remote -v' git indicated that
you already had a remote named 'origin' and referencing the git server
git at git.bioconductor.org. What the command above does is to add a second
remote pointing to git.bioconductor.org, but this one named 'upstream'.

I can see that the documentation in this work flow needs to be adjusted,
because in other

It would be appropriate to rename the remote, e.g.,

   git remote rename origin upstream

nonetheless, issuing the command should not cause a problem.

It seems like at this stage you should continue with the workflow that
you started, i.e.,

   - 'Commit changes to your local repository' to develop a new feature
or fix a bug, including checking that your code changes are correct by
running R CMD build and R CMD check using the 'devel' version of
Bioconductor, and

   - 'Push your local changes to the Bioconductor repository' to make
your code changes available to the Bioconductor build server. Remember
that builds run once a day, and that you need to confirm that the build
has been successful by visiting http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/.

The steps below are not necessary for you at the moment.
