[Bioc-devel] Maintenance of MetaNeighbor package

[Nitesh Turaga]

Hi Stephan,

First, I’d like you to cc Dr. Jesse Gillis and also Manthan so we know that everyone is in agreement. 

I can help you with the permissions on the Bioconductor repo. Before you get permissions you will only be able to fetch using the HTTP protocol, i.e 

	git remote set-url upstream https://git.bioconductor.org/packages/MetaNeighbor <https://git.bioconductor.org/packages/MetaNeighbor>

	git fetch —all

Once you get the permissions you can modify the remote to use the SSH protocol instead.

Best,

Nitesh
