2022-05-09	Imported recent updates in Maneage, conflicts fixed	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-2/+2
	Until now, Maneage had undergone some updates. With this commit, those updates have been imported and the conflicts that resulted were fixed. They were all cosmetic and had no effect on the analysis. The most significant one was about the change in the format of 'INPUTS.conf'. In the process, I also noticed that the IEEEtran LaTeX package is now called 'ieeetran' (the 'tlmgr' of TeXLive 2022 was failing).
2021-01-04	Very minor corrections to the necessity appendix	Raul Infante-Sainz	-13/+18
	With this commit, I have corrected some minor typos of this appendix. They are very minor corrections.
2021-01-03	Minor copyediting	Boud Roukema	-1/+1
	This commit does some minor copyediting, especially of the introduction to the supplement. There's no point complaining to the reader about the word limit of the journal: s/he is not interested in that. This is not the right place for discussing journal policy. The need for summarising content and focussing on key elements of a cohesive argument is fundamental in a world of information overload. A&A/MNRAS/ApJ/PRD letters are generally much worse than normal articles in terms of reproducibility because they have to omit so many details that the reader has to read the full articles to really know what is done. But the reality is that letters get read a lot, because they're short and snappy.
2021-01-03	Cleaned abstract and Section II to fit word limit	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-1/+1
	In the abstract the repeated benefits of Maneage (which are also mentioned in the criteria) were removed to fit into CiSE's online submission guidelines. In Section II (Longevity of existing tools), the paragraph that itemized the following paragrahs as a numbered list has been removed with the sentence that repeatedly states the importance of reproducibility in the sciences and some branches of the industry. With these changes our approximate automatic count has 6277 words. This is still very slightly larger than the 6250 word limit of the journal. However, this count is a definite over-estimation (including many things like page titles and page numberings from the raw PDF to text conversion). So the actual count for the journal publication should be less than this. A few other tiny corrections were made: - The year of the paper and copyright in 'README.md' was set to 2021. The copyright of the rest of the files will be set to 2021 after the next merge with Maneage soon (the years of core infrastructure copyrights has already been corrected there). - Mohammadreza's name was added in 'README.md'. - The line to import the "necessity" appendix has been commented in the version to have the full paper in one PDF (to be upladed to arXiv or Zenodo). - The supplement PDF now starts with '\appendices' so the sections have the same labels as the single-PDF version.
2021-01-02	Supplement (containing appendices) optionally built separately	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-2/+15
	Until now, the build strategy of the paper was to have a single output PDF that either contains (1) the full paper with appendices in the same paper (2) only the main body of the paper with no appencies. But the editor in chief of CiSE recently recommended publishing the appendices as supplements that is a separate PDF (on its webpage). So with this commit, the project can make either (1) a single PDF (containing both the main body and the appendices) that will be published on arXiv and will be the default output (this is the same as before). (2) two PDFs: one that is only the main body of the paper and another that is only the appendices. Since the appendices will be printed as a PDF in any case now, the old '--no-appendix' option has been replaced by '--supplement'. Also, the internal shell/TeX variable 'noappendix' has been renamed to 'separatesupplement'.
2020-12-30	Each appendix moved to a separate .tex file	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+79
	As recommended by Lorena Barba (editor in chief of CiSE), we should prepare the appendices as a separate "Supplement" for the journal. But we also want them to be appendices within the paper when built for arXiv. As a first step, with this commit, each appendix has been put in a separate 'tex/src/appendix-*.tex' file and '\input' into the paper. We will then be able to conditionally include them in the PDF or not. Also, as recommended by Lorena, the general "necessity for reproducible research" appendix isn't included (possibly going into the webpage later).
