Can't checkout Atom/Codetools

[nilshg]

I'm probably being dense here, but:

julia> Pkg.checkout("http://github.com/JunoLab/Atom.jl")
ERROR: http://github.com/JunoLab/Atom.jl is not a git repo

julia> Pkg.checkout("Atom")
ERROR: Atom is dirty, bailing

How can I get the latest fixes?

Pkg.rm("Atom")
Pkg.clone("http://github.com/JunoLab/Atom.jl")

should do the trick.
If not, manually delete the Atom folder from ~\.julia\v0.4 and try cloning again. And don't forget to close Atom (or rather the Julia instance started from Atom) first, I think there may be problems otherwise...

The rule is – Pkg.checkout if you already have it, Pkg.clone if you don't (and Pkg.clone("Atom") will work).

@Varanas is exactly right about how to fix this – you have local changes to Atom.jl so Pkg refuses to overwrite them. You can just nuke the whole folder, or you can make a PR out of your changes and then checkout the master branch ;)

[nilshg]

Ah, my local changes were the culprit! Those changes were just those few lines about cutting up large vectors for the inline display, so they're in a PR already. Learned something today!

[MikeInnes]

Can you link me to that btw? I seem to have lost it...

[pfitzseb]

It's that one... Just to the wrong repo, @nilshg.

Not really related, but could we have another gitter chat or reuse the old one for talking about Juno, @one-more-minute? I feel that's somewhat nicer for brainstorming and resolving small problems and stuff than github issues (and those are/should be specific to one repo, not necessarily about the whole project).

[MikeInnes]

Ah, nice sleuthing. Yeah, I'll go ahead and set up a gitter for JunoLab.
