Code Management

mu2e uses git for all code management. There is one main repository for code (with BTrk, the Kalman fit, in a separate respository) and a few smaller repositories for tools. Built releases are distributed worldwide, including remote institutions and the grids with the cvmfs distributed disk system. The code is built after every commit, and built and validated every night on the Jenkins build platform.

• The Mu2e git page
• Jenkins - a central build platform
  • Jenkins overview
  • Jenkins Nightly build results
• CVMFS - a distributed disk system to serve tagged, static code builds and products
  • for users
  • installing at remote sites
  • maintaining content
• Download - pull a local copy to remote institutions or laptops
• BTrk - the KalMan fitter code is in this non-standard product

Standards and Practices

• Editors: Emacs, vim; policy of not using tab characters.
