Balmorel GitHub Tutorial

This tutorial will show, how to work with Balmorel on GitHub. It will cover the basic steps of:

• Forking the Balmorel and Balmorel_data repository.

• Cloning the repository to your local PC or HPC and setting up the folder structure

• Commiting changes and pushing them upstream to your remote repository

• Creating your own branch

• Making a pull request to merge into the master branch

We offer three different paths for this exercise:

• GitHub

• VS Code

• Command line

• Creating a copy of the repository by “forking” and/or “cloning”
• Creating branches and commits
• Merging changes and contributing to the project

This tutorial was inspired by this coderefinery course. There you can also find more information on reproducible research in Python.
