[Bioc-devel] GitHub and svn

[Gabe Becker]

Mani,

Related to what Kasper said, one thing you can do is commit directly to the
canonical repo for your package (which again is not on github once the
package is accepted) from rstudio. It supports svn.

Not at the moment.  We are in the (long) process of changing this, but
there is no ETA for it.

The complications we currently have, as soon as a package is accepted in
Bioconductor, is that the "true" repository then becomes Bioconductor SVN
and your Github repository is just a way for you to develop.  This is not
the case during package submission.

Best,
Kasper
