ICES GitHub Guidelines

ICES provides four GitHub areas to facilitate scientific collaboration in marine research:

  1. Expert Groups
    https://github.com/ices-eg

  2. Tools under development
    https://github.com/ices-tools-dev

  3. Tools maintained by ICES
    https://github.com/ices-tools-prod

  4. Transparent Assessment Framework
    https://github.com/ices-taf

The code in these repositories can be browsed and downloaded. To apply for write access to specific repositories, please send an email to github@ices.dk.

The main guidelines for working in the ICES GitHub areas are:

  • Users should provide their full name in their GitHub profile (https://github.com/settings/profile).

  • Repositories should be kept under 1 GB and should mainly contain code and configuration files. Large datasets, images, and documents are better stored elsewhere.

  • Expert Group chairs may recommend a certain GitHub workflow for that group.

The main GitHub help page can be found at:
https://help.github.com

A hello world tutorial can be found at:

Other help resources, including the Git book, are listed in the R development guidelines used by the ICES Secretariat:
