3  Starting a support project.

• Make a private Project repository from my Template repository on Github.

  1. Select New Repository on Github from the + symbol in the top right corner.
  2. Select mahesh-panchal/NBIS_project_template in Repository template.
  3. Change owner to NBISweden.
  4. Provide a repository name following SMS-<id>-<year>-<short_description>.
  5. Ensure repository is private, then click Create repository.
  6. Add a link to the Redmine Project in the URL box.

• Clone it into the NAISS Compute project.

  cd /proj/naiss20XX-YY-ZZ
  git clone git@github.com:NBISweden/SMS-<id>-<year>-<short_description>.git NBIS_support_<id>

• Clone the NAISS compute project locally.

  cd ~/Documents/Projects
  git clone <user>@rackham.uppmax.uu.se:/proj/naiss20XX-YY-ZZ/NBIS_support_<id>

• Update README in the repository.

The template provides an organised folder structure, and skeleton files to quickly start prototyping. A Makefile is present to run common commands.

Analyses are primarily run on Uppmax. Github is used as a backup, and local work is pushed directly to Uppmax saving a step. This means however the Uppmax active branch (usually main) must be different from my local branch ( usually a feature branch ) when I git push.

Once the repositories are cloned, I update the README with the project info, tasks to be performed, and Uppmax directories.
