Guidelines for the Final Report

Start up of the svn repository for the PANDA PIDTAG report

• First Steps: (Carsten Schwarz, see also PidtagMeeting09, Cracow 23.06.2008)
  • Only the first time: checkout with
    • svn checkout svn+ssh://charme@lxg0308.gsi.de/u/charme/svn/pid-tag
  • You find two directories
    • trunk (working directory)
    • tags (holds later named snapshots)
  • Work is done in trunk
    • editing files
    • adding files (later do a svn add filename)
    • removing files by svn remove filename
    • at end
      • svn commit -m “what I have done string”
• Normal working cycle:
  • in directory pid-tag/trunk
  • svn update (get changes from other people)
  • work
  • svn commit (upload changes to repository)

• svn without PID TAG password
  • If you want to use svn without entering always the PID TAG password you can send your public dsa key to me (Georg) or Carsten.
  • In case you do not have a public dsa key you can create it:
    • go into you .ssh directory
    • perform there the command:
    • ssh-keygen -d
    • in .ssh you will have then the file id_dsa.pub
  • Then you can send the content of this file via e-mail to me
    • send only the public key not your private one!

Scope

Technical

• Document is prepared with pdflatex, for translation use make
  • use sequence make clean followed by make, as 'make' does not pick up changes to the sub-files included into the main Tex file.
• Make sure make runs smoothly before committing changes to svn repository.
  • Ideally have a 2nd separate svn directory where you only checkout and update, to avoid being fooled by local-only files not under svn control.
• Preferably give figure sizes as width=0.9\textwidth, not 155mm.
