olaFlow DOI

Sunday, Jun 24, 2018| Tags: DOI, Citing

We have just included olaFlow in the Zenodo database, after preparing the code for minting a DOI. This allows users to have a perpetual reference for citing the software, which works in the same way as the DOI for papers.

The DOI identifier for olaFlow is: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1297012

Also, the References section of this web site has been updated to reflect the new changes, making it easier for the users to decide the best way to cite olaFlow.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Although no significant functionality changes have been introduced in the code during the preparation of the code for the DOI minting, the git history has been rewritten. This means that your local copy of olaFlow will not be able to obtain the latest updates in the usual manner.

Users are advised to download a fresh copy of the repository by running the following instruction in the terminal:

git clone https://github.com/phicau/olaFlow.git

Alternatively, advanced users also correct this by running:

git pull
git reset --hard origin/master
git pull origin master

After this, future updates will be available again.

Users who have made custom changes to the code and wish to continue getting updates may integrate them in the usual simple (e.g. copying and pasting their files) and advanced (e.g. git rebase) ways.
