IMPORTANT: Added publication checklist, improved relevant infrastructure
Possible semantic conflicts (that may not show up as Git conflicts but may cause a crash in your project after the merge): 1) The project title (and other basic metadata) should be set in 'reproduce/analysis/conf/metadata.conf'. Please include this file in your merge (if it is ignored because of '.gitattributes'!). 2) Consider importing the changes in 'initialize.mk' and 'verify.mk' (if you have added all analysis Makefiles to the '.gitattributes' file (thus not merging any change in them with your branch). For example with this command: git diff master...maneage -- reproduce/analysis/make/initialize.mk 3) The old 'verify-txt-no-comments-leading-space' function has been replaced by 'verify-txt-no-comments-no-space'. The new function will also remove all white-space characters between the columns (not just white space characters at the start of the line). Thus the resulting check won't involve spacing between columns. A common set of steps are always necessary to prepare a project for publication. Until now, we would simply look at previous submissions and try to follow them, but that was prone to errors and could cause confusion. The internal infrastructure also didn't have some useful features to make good publication possible. Now that the submission of a paper fully devoted to the founding criteria of Maneage is complete (arXiv:2006.03018), it was time to formalize the necessary steps for easier submission of a project using Maneage and implement some low-level features that can make things easier. With this commit a first draft of the publication checklist has been added to 'README-hacking.md', it was tested in the submission of arXiv:2006.03018 and zenodo.3872248. To help guide users on implementing the good practices for output datasets, the outputs of the default project shown in the paper now use the new features). After reading the checklist, please inspect these. Some other relevant changes in this commit: - The publication involves a copy of the necessary software tarballs. Hence a new target ('dist-software') was also added to package all the project's software tarballs in one tarball for easy distribution. - A new 'dist-lzip' target has been defined for those who want to distribute an Lzip-compressed tarball. - The '\includetikz' LaTeX macro now has a second argument to allow configuring the '\includegraphics' call when the plot should not be built, but just imported.
