Hi All,

I have a question relative to the privileges that we have as developers on
the Bioc server. Apart from the folders where the actual release and devel
versions of our packages are, do we have access to some other folders in
order to open new branches of our Bioc packages?

For example, the directory where the package I'm working on is:

https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/trunk/madman/Rpacks/INSPEcT

which refers to the devel version of my package. I'm working there in order
to fix some bugs on the code, but meanwhile I would like to open a
different branch for adding new functionalities to the package.

I tried to access, for example, the directory:

https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/branches/Rpacks/

but it's forbidden to my user.

Is it possible to branch directly using the Bioc repository or do I need to
do it on my local machine?

Thanks,

Stefano
