[Bioc-devel] Maintainers submit your SSH public keys

Wed Jul 12 18:16:32 CEST 2017

Hi Samuel,

This is a great question.

You are not required to create a Github repository for your package. But, if you are actively maintaining your package, and would like to take advantage of the social coding features and the extended Bioconductor community it is a really good idea.

If you want to just maintain it on our Git server, once you have SSH access, you are welcome to do that as well. This is highlighted in our documentation https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/blob/master/doc/scenario-11-maintain-without-github.md.

We welcome feedback on the documentation, and FAQ section (https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/blob/master/doc/faq.md)

Best Regards,

Nitesh

Dear Nitesh,

This may seem like an obvious question, but if we have not created a repository for our packages yet, should we create a GitHub repository using the directions here:

https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/blob/master/doc/scenario-1-svn-to-github.md

 Thank you.

Best,
Sam

Hi Ramon,

This is a good question. Your key will be processed every 24 hours. If you
have already submitted, then, you should be able to work through the
documentation provided
(https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/tree/master/doc).
Working through the documentation to check everything is in order helps
everyone in the Bioconductor community too.

Or a simple way to check is, make a change in your cloned package, ideally
it is a ³version bump² in the DESCRIPTION file. Then, try to git add ‹>
commit ‹> push the change up to the new git server. These steps are given
in our documentation,

https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/blob/master/doc/scenari

achine

https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioc_git_transition/blob/master/doc/scenari
o-11-maintain-without-github.md#make-and-commit-changes-to-your-local-repos
itory

We appreciate feedback on this.

Best,

Nitesh

P.S We have already processed your previous submission. Don¹t worry, we
don¹t process duplicate submissions.

git / svn transition: ssh keys<https://goo.gl/forms/eg36vcBkIUjfZfLe2>
goo.gl
Use this form to link your existing svn credentials with access permissions to the new Bioconductor git repository. To do this, we need an ssh public key. You might have added these to github, see https://github.com/your-github-id.keys. Alternatively, you may provide the ssh public key directly, e.g., copy-pasting ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. To generate ssh key pairs, see https://help.github.com/articles/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent/
