Hi,

thanks for the answer, unfortunately
not exactly what I meant. To be more precise:

I want to point Galaxy to download (test) MS data files
from either the faahKO package, or msdata or mtbls2 in BioC.

For that I need an ftp/http/https link to the files,
and I was able to use

https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioc-data/trunk/experiment/pkgs/msdata/inst/cdf/ko15.CDF

(which still works, but is probably outdated)
So is there anything equivalent in the new git setup ?

no, not from git.bioconductor.org.

Martin


Yours,
Steffen

Hi,

I would like to have a URL to individual files
we have in BioC packages. This is useful
e.g. if I need test data from, say, the msdata package,
in another context.

In the SVN days, I was able to point directly
into the SVN repo with readonly:readonly access.
We also had the (now deprecated) way to link to:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bioconductor-mirror/xcms/master/D
ESCRIPTION

-> Is there anything comparable today ?

I think the git archive command might do the trick, but it requires
ssh
(i.e., write) access to the repository

git archive --remote=g...@git.bioconductor.org:packages/xcms \
       master DESCRIPTION | tar -xf -



It could be as simple as a directory tree
of a working copies of all https://git.bioconductor.org/
served by the apache (or whatever) web server,
or (a bit cooler) a gitweb or similar http interface.

Wouldn't that be a fantastic christmas present
for us users and developers :-) ?

Yours,
Steffen
