Update KALMAN from SVN

To update the version used by SMRs (and jensen/nyquist the day after) (I) do the following:

• ssh jensen.iau.dtu.dk (work on jensen)
• cd svn (skift til dit svn directory for mobotware)
• svn update (get latest version - note the SVN version number)
• export mobotware part using a script (it asks for the SVN version number):

$ ./exportMobotware
exporting mobotware - aumat, mrc, rhd, aurs etc.
Enter SVN version number xxx for mobotware-2.xxx.tar.gz: 1829
Export complete.
Export complete.
...

• The full mobotware will be exported and compiled into a new directory: mobotware-2.1829

Transfer to KALMAN

• go to that directory

$ cd mobotware-2.1829

• there is here a makefile that can transfer it to kalman, with a variable VER for the destination

$ make kalman VER=2012f

• it will ask for a password twice! (if you do not use shared keys)
• NB! the directory /opt/smr.2011f needs to be established in advance, e.g.

Establish a new version directory on kalman

• go to kalman
• copy the newest version (here smr.2012f) to the new directory (here smr.2012g) using rsync, and let other VIPs edit the version e.g.:

$ ssh kalman
$ cd /opt
$ rsync -rl smr.2012f/* smr.2012g
$ chmod -R g+w smr.2012g 

Make new version the default one

$ ssh kalman
$ cd /opt
$ mv smr smr-not-used-anymore
$ ln -s smr.2012g smr
