Dear Kelsey,

Speaking of my own experience, GitHub remains the main development platform=
 after my packages are added to Bioconductor (see for example several packa=
ges in [1]). Whenever new features or bugs are ready, the new version gets =
pushed to the Bioconductor git server, which is simply added as another rem=
ote [2] to my local clone. I can provide more details if needed.

The only things that you need to take care of are

1. bump the version when you push to Bioc (bump z in x.y.z, so that the new=
 version is propagated and becomes available with BiocManager::install());
2. after a release, pull from the Bioc remote and merge into GitHub's main =
branch to update y accordingly.

Related to 1 above, whenever I push the Bioc, I also immediately bump z on =
GitHub (even if there's still no change), and tag to commit with 'New gh de=
vel version', to avoid having identical versions from different sources.

Best wishes,

Laurent

Subject: [Bioc-devel] Continuing Github development workflow after submissi=
on to Bioconductor

Hi,

My lab is currently considering submitting our package to Bioconductor, but=
 I am curious about how - if at all - this will affect our development work=
flow on Github. Specifically, I would like to know if after submission to B=
ioconductor, our lab's repo of the package remains independent of the Bioco=
nductor version. We would like to be able to continue working on and develo=
ping our package as before and only push changes to Bioconductor when we ha=
ve reached a new stable version.

Thank you,
Kelsey
