Code repositories
MAS and MCE script are housed in separate Subversion (SVN) repositories on e-mode.phas.ubc.ca, accessible from anywhere on the internet. The core MAS repository is called mas. The MCE script repository is called mce_script.
To check out the code you will need a SVN user id (and password). For read-only access, accounts are often given out on a per-experiment basis. Committing to the repository requires a personal account. For account information, contact UBC.
MAS
Everyone should be using mas/trunk these days. (In the past we suggested branching the MAS repository on a per-experiment basis but MAS is now stable enough that this is no longer necessary.) Only mas/trunk is currently maintained for Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04.
MAS uses the GNU autotools for a bit of configuration work. You should checkout MAS into a user source folder somewhere:
cd src/ svn checkout --username=<svn_id> svn://e-mode.phas.ubc.ca/mas/trunk mas
MCE Script
Everyone should be using mce_script/trunk these days. (In the past we suggested branching mce_script on a per-experiment basis but MCE Script is now stable enough that this is no longer mecessary.)
We also now suggest people check mce_script in a user source folder somewhere, and install it into /usr/mce/mce_script (or wherever they want the public copy to go) using the supplied Makefile. (In the past checking out mce_script directly into /usr/mce was suggested).
To check out MCE script:
cd src/ svn checkout --username=<svn_id> svn://e-mode.phas.ubc.ca/mce_script/trunk mce_script
