Beginner's guide to working in Wales group

How to add papers to group bib?

• Make sure you are logged in to your workstation at the department. Whenever asked for a password, enter your admitto password.
• In your /scratch directory create a working copy of the directory you want to make changes to.

cd /scratch/CRSid
mkdir djwpapers
cd djwpapers
svn checkout https://svn.ch.cam.ac.uk/svn/wales/groups/djwpapers/bib
cd bib
svn update

• Open the file you want to edit using vi, make desired changes and save them.

Note that bib entry for a paper can easily be obtained by googling the paper first, find the link 'cite this' somewhere, choose 'Bib Tex' option when asked to select citation manager/file format and then download it (or directly open it) to see the bib entry.

• Commit your changes with a descriptive messages so that others know why you made this commit.

svn commit -m "Your message here"

• Delete the directory you created in scratch once you are done.

rm -rf /scratch/CRSid/djwpapers
