To run experiments in the Sphere Lab, you will need particular Matlab files that are stored in a [https://gitlab.science.ru.nl/marcw/experiment.git Git repository]
For bachelor/master/PhD students:
* Ask for an administrator (Marc van Wanrooij, [[Technical Support Group|Günter Windau]]) to create a new User Account without administrator rights
* Login to [https://gitlab.science.ru.nl Gitlab]
* Ask for a Git Master (Marc van Wanrooij, Günter Windau) to give you access to the [https://gitlab.science.ru.nl/marcw/experiment.git Git repository] to add you as a Developer (this will allow you to change things without affecting the main repository).
* install Atlassian SourceTree by going to Windows/ProgramFiles/Atlassian and double clicking on sourcetree.exe (this will be your interface with the repository instead of the default terminal/command prompt).
* Clone the [https://gitlab.science.ru.nl/marcw/experiment.git experiment-repository] by clicking on Clone in SourceTree to MATLAB/experiment in your User account Documents folder (all required m-files will now be copied to your folder, i.e. you will own your own local repository)
* Create a new branch of this repository by clicking on Branch in SourceTree, and give it a meaningful name, such as your own first name (this will enable you to edit the m-files and upload/push it to the remote repository, without affecting the main repository).
* Add the local repository to Matlab's path (via ...)
* Start an experiment
At the end of a student's internship (or when relevant), request for a merge (to incorporate all the useful changes you made into the main repository)
