Filing Bugs or Feature Requests

Please always create an issue when you encounter any bugs, problems or need a new feature. Emails and private messages are not meant to communicate such things!

Use the appropriate template and file a new issue here: https://git.km3net.de/ml/OrcaNet/issues

If you’re not in the KM3NeT collaboration, please open an issue on github: https://github.com/ViaFerrata/OrcaNet/issues

Please follow the instructions in the templates to provide all the necessary information which will help other people to understand the situation.

Make a Fork of OrcaNet

You create a fork (your full own copy of the repository), change the code and when you are happy with the changes, you create a merge request, so we can review, discuss and add your contribution. Merge requests are automatically tested on our GitLab CI server and you don’t have to do anything special.

Go to http://git.km3net.de/ml/OrcaNet and click on “Fork”.

After that, you will have a full copy of OrcaNet with write access under an URL like this: http://git.km3net.de/your_git_username/OrcaNet

Clone your Fork to your PC

Get a local copy to work on (use the SSH address git@git…, not the HTTP one):

git clone git@git.km3net.de:your_git_username/OrcaNet.git

Now you need to add a reference to the original repository, so you can sync your own fork with the OrcaNet repository:

cd OrcaNet
git remote add upstream git@git.km3net.de:ml/OrcaNet.git

Keep your Fork Up to Date

To get the most recent commits (including all branches), run:

git fetch upstream

This will download all the missing commits and branches which are now accessible using the upstream/... prefix:

$ git fetch upstream
From git.km3net.de:ml/OrcaNet
 * [new branch]        branch1 -> upstream/branch1
 * [new branch]        branch2 -> upstream/branch2

If you want to update for example your own master branch to contain all the changes on the official master branch of OrcaNet, switch to it first with:

git checkout master

and then merge the upstream/master into it:

git merge upstream/master

Make sure to regularly git fetch upstream and merge changes to your own branches.
