Using bitbucket

1. Set up your own account.

 http://bitbucket.org/account/signup/

Different centers have a communal account that can be used to assign tasks to; however, it is not advised to enter an issue from the communal account. By entering an issue from your own account, people can directly contact you if they have questions, and you can more easily follow the action on that issue.

2. Find and follow the tharris/wormbase project:

 http://bitbucket.org/tharris/wormbase/

Click on "Follow" (by the red heart) to be added as a groupie to this project.

3. To report an issue: Choose the 'issues' tab from the wormbase bitbucket page which will take you to

 http://bitbucket.org/tharris/wormbase/issues/

• Choose "Create new" in the menu bar immediately above the issue list, this will take you to an issue entry form.
• Enter issue name and brief description
• Assigning the issue
  • website problem/request -> webdev_team or todd
  • Caltech problem/request -> wbcit
  • Sanger problem/request -> wormbase_ant(?)
  • St. Louis problem/request -> ?
  • If the person/center is not in the list, assign the issue to "nobody", and make sure to e-mail the person/center.
  • If you don't know who to assign it to, assign it to "nobody" or "todd", it will be reassigned when Todd gets a chance to have a look.

• Other issue properties: if you are submitting a help desk question, be sure to choose "Help Desk" from the "Component" drop down list. Otherwise, fill out as many property tags as you want; these can be corrected by the person you assigned the issues to, so don't worry about them so much.
• Click "follow issue updates" if you want to get updates sent to your mailbox as they are posted.
• Click "report issue" to submit the issue.

• To make sure it was added to the list, go back to the issue list. It should be listed automatically as "New". Todd or the person assigned to the task will update the status as they are dealing with it.
