      Description

      Describe (at a high level) how the continuous, automated release of Early Access IGB will work.

      Requirements:

      • It should be possible for users to tell the difference between Early Access IGB and the released version.
      • It would be nice if users can tell the difference between different Early Access IGB releases. For example, can we include commit hash in the file name or ???
      • It would be nice if Early Access IGB would automatically update using the Install4J mechanism, and also that it would not over-write released IGB if already installed.

      Early Access IGB, from the users' perspective, should seem like a separate, cutting edge version of IGB.

      Once the design is made, create issues capturing tasks required for implementation.

          Update:

          • Would like to do this every two weeks at the end of each sprint, but isn't practical at the moment.
          • Bioviz site contains some simple scripts that can be used to do an early access release manually.
          • Noor Zahara has added git commit information to About IGB screen. This ensures a user can easily determine which version of IGB is being run.
