ReScience
pandoc + xelatex chocking on the \tightlist tex command.
I get a
! Undefined control sequence.
l.227 \tightlist
which apparently comes from a "new" feature of pandoc that has not been integrated in the template. I will propose a PR modifying the template, but it asks the bigger question of maybe forking the default latex template to integrate the changes these guys make along the way.
The current latex template in ReScience could certainly be improved. I removed a lot of if/then/else statements mostly because I was discovering the pandoc tool and I may have break future compatibility.
What do you mean exactly by forking the latex template ? If you have a long-term solution in mind, that would be great.
The pandoc default templates repo could be forked to make the basis of the template we're working on. We modify it in the forms of branches for instances, and then integrate the changes they make along the way.
Not sure. We could use a submodule, or just have a different repo for the template itself, that we replace in the submission repo when it get changed.
Fork it off the Pandoc templates repo under the ReScience account and then link that repo into the submission repo using git subtree?
Yep, I'd go the route of a separate repo for the template alone - just not convinced about the submodule thing, which tends to break/be slightly complicated to maintain. Copy-paste-commit could be a good start.
And we have also the rmarkdown alternative proposal. Maybe we should start some experiments in a dedicated repository.
