I have attempted to remove several .tar.gz files from the LOBSTAHS package directory using a series of cherry-picked commits. (I had successfully removed these .tar files a few months ago, but somehow they just reappeared in the directory after I invoked git svn rebase during a recent attempt to commit some other changes.) I was able to successfully remove them a second time from the svn directory, but they are still showing up on the Bioconductor GIt mirror. I even tried re-committing the files, and then making a new commit that deleted them, but this did not work as far as the Git mirror is concerned (it was successful on svn). Please advise, any help appreciated. Jamie Collins
[Bioc-devel] Files removed from svn are not disappearing from Git mirror

Martin, Herv?: Thanks both of you for the assistance! Herv?: Wasn't trying to make things any worse by committing and then removing them -- just thought that might work after I observed that the Git mirror appeared to register the new commits of files but not subsequent commits to delete them. Hopefully this is the last time I "break" the mirror-svn connection. Jamie On Mon, Nov 14, 2016 at 9:38 PM, James Collins <james.r.collins at aya.yale.edu
