The turnin program is a script that uses Subversion to enable student homework submissions. It is available only in the Clear cluster.

Option A: Using SVN commands for direct repository access

Submitting your Homework from the Clear Network 

...

1.  One time setup on your machine

   1. Make a new empty directory comp311 in your home directory and switch to that directory:
      mkdir comp311 
      cd comp311
      
      
   2. Use Subversion to check out your submission directory:
      svn checkout https://svn.rice.edu/r/comp311/turnin/«current-semester»/«your-net-id»
      E.g., for Fall 2017 and the NetID  "xyz99":
      https://svn.rice.edu/r/comp311/turnin/F17/xyz99
      
      
2. To check the status of your current directory, run :
   svn status 
   This should show all your files that are added(A) / not added(?) / deleted(D) / modified (M) to the Subversion repository.
   
   
3. To add folders/ files, use : 
   svn add «file_name» (without angle brackets)
   svn add «folder_name» (without angle brackets) – recursively adds all files in it
   This should show all files/ folders that have been added to the Repository (this is still a local copy)
   1. To delete folders/ files, use : 
      svn del «file_name» (without angle brackets)
      svn del «folder_name» (without angle brackets) – recursively adds all files in it
      This should show all files/ folders that have been deleted to the Repository (this is still a local copy)
4. To commit your files, use: 
   svn ci -m "Some relevant message here"
   This should show all the files that have been added/ modified/ deleted ... followed by
   -- Transmitting file data.
   -- Committed revision «rev. no»
   
   
5. And you have successfully added your folder/ files to the SVN repository. Visit repo on the browser to confirm that all the file structure is intact.

Option B: Using the turnin command on CLEAR

One time Setup in Clear

1. Login to CLEAR:
   ssh <your netid>@ssh.clear.rice.edu
   <your password>
   
   
2. Make a new empty directory comp311 in your home directory and switch to that directory:
   mkdir comp311 
   cd comp311
    
3. Use Subversion to check out your submission directory:
   svn checkout https://svn.rice.edu/r/comp311/turnin/«current-semester»/«your-net-id»
   E.g., for Fall 2017 and the NetID  "xyz99":
   https://svn.rice.edu/r/comp311/turnin/F17/xyz99
   
   
4. You might be asked if you wish to store your password unencrypted. Always say no when asked this.
5. Now you should have a folder named «your netid» in the comp311 directory you created.
