Hi,I have a couple of questions on how to use easybuild (EB) with different admins and how to contribute in that case.
I installed EB on a shared drive, and provided a file like the one attached. If this file is sourced by the admin, the admin is ready to install software with EB.
So far so good.Now an admin wants to create an easyblock and easyconfig for a new software. (S)he can do that wherever, but than it becomes difficult to contribute. So every admin clones the github in the home directory, and follows https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/Setting-up-your-own-easyblocks-repository with MYEBDIR the github-clone one. Is that correct?
But then the added files are not available for the installed system until the new release of EB, right?
The same for the easy-configs?What if I want to make a small local change in eb file. For example the path to the source of licences from intel software. I don't think I want to commit that to the git, but I do want to keep track of the change in our installation of eb, so that a reinstall has the correct information.
I'm not a PythonPATH or Git expert, but I'm sure your answer will help me to become one!
