logfile -- version number?
Hey - I think it would be a good idea to list version number/github fork/something in the banzai logfile, especially given the number of different forks and putative users at this point... is that doable?
It's doable, but... I kept away from it early on because changes were so frequent and I was less comfortable committing to a version numbering system. Even still, I wonder if versioning the scripts (demultiplexer, metadata reader, etc) is more important than versioning the whole pipeline.
Fair enough. But maybe instead of versioning, somehow just capture the date on which the user cloned banzai from which repository?

Yeah, I'd wanted to do that from the get-go, but there is no method I'm aware of to embed the date that it was downloaded from github. When you say repository here, are you referring to e.g. master, dev?
Gotcha.
Re: repository, I was thinking which github user’s fork, but sure — master/dev/etc, would also be useful.

This might be useful at some point, though only if the repository was cloned, not downloaded as a .zip file: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4089430/how-can-i-determine-the-url-that-a-local-git-repository-was-originally-cloned-fr?rq=1
