2020-01-18README-hacking.md: edits and corrections for easier customizationMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
The checklist descriptions were slightly edited to be more clear. Also, while following them, I noticed that while removing the "delete-me" parts on `verify.mk', would cause an error: the `if [ $$m == delete-me ];' statement we were saying to delete cause an error because `elif' was the first statement Bash would see. So with this commit, the `download' conditional (which isn't instructed to be deleted) was set to be the top (with an `if') and the `delete-me' conditional now has an `elif'.
2020-01-01Verification function checks if file existsMohammad Akhlaghi-3/+13
Until now, if the file to be verified didn't exist, a different checksum would be generated, and it would stop, but it wasn't immediately clear if the differing checksum is because the file doesn't exist at all! With this commit, before calculating the checksum, we first make sure if the file exists. If it doesn't exist an explicit error is printed and thus will help the project editor to find the cause of the problem.
2020-01-01Verification of output values and data added within templateMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+116
Until now, the only verification that the template provided was the published PDF. Users had to manually compare the published and generated PDFs (numbers, plots, tables) and see if they obtained the same result. However, this type of manual verification is not good and is prone to frustration and missing important differences. With this commit, a new Makefile has been added in the analysis steps: `verify.mk'. It provides facilities to easily verify the results that go into the paper. For example tables that go into making the paper's plots, or the LaTeX macros that blend into the text. See the updated parts in `README-hacking.md` for a more complete explanation. This completes task #15497.
