<p>Hello,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>There is script called Gitaar (<a href="https://github.com/eprintsug/gitaar" id="LPlnk689306">https://github.com/eprintsug/gitaar</a>) which can be used to create epmi or epm files from (properly structured) git repositories that don't have them.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>However it looks like datesdatesdates has an epmi, in which case you can run <br>

in the repo (also not yet an epm package), though that may not be necessary, just handled if it is already there.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Another newbie question, can anyone provide an idiots guide to installing from github??</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I tried to install <a href="https://github.com/eprintsug/datesdatesdates">
https://github.com/eprintsug/datesdatesdates</a> via Upload and Install at the bottom of the bazaar page – tried the .epmi and full zip but just get a 500 Internal Server error so I’m guessing that’s not the way to do it</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t have access to the server but “learning” together with a colleague from our infrastructure team.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks</p>
