2019-10-02	Possibile to use download-multi-try script without locks	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-4/+11
	Until now, this script would always only work with a file-lock. But in some scenarios, we might want to download in parallel. For example when the system has multiple ports to the internet. With this commit, we have added this feature: when the lockfile name is `nolock', it won't lock and will download in parallel.
2019-05-09	download-multi-try now starts with a /bin/bash shebang	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+2
	Until now, the `download-multi-try' script assumed GNU Bash features (when comparing the number of attempts at downloading), but it didn't explicitly ask the operating system to be run with Bash. As a result, when weaker shells were used (like the default Debian minimalist `dash' shell), the `>' ("larger than" operator in a math context) is interpreted a redirection and two extra files are created: `1' and `maxcount'! With this commit, we now start this script with `/bin/bash'. Ofcourse, this will assume that the host has GNU Bash installed, but we are also making this assumption in the configure script. So atleast for now, Bash (any version) is a critical dependency of this template anyway.
2019-04-15	New architecture to separate software-building and analysis steps	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+112
	Until now, the software building and analysis steps of the pipeline were intertwined. However, these steps (of how to build a software, and how to use it) are logically completely independent. Therefore with this commit, the pipeline now has a new architecture (particularly in the `reproduce' directory) to emphasize this distinction: The `reproduce' directory now has the two `software' and `analysis' subdirectories and the respective parts of the previous architecture have been broken up between these two based on their function. There is also no more `src' directory. The `config' directory for software and analysis is now mixed with the language-specific directories. Also, some of the software versions were also updated after some checks with their webpages. This new architecture will allow much more focused work on each part of the pipeline (to install the software and to run them for an analysis).
