About 2 weeks ago, I wanted to make a new version of “emotionbox” called “emotionbox_v” with the same design, but different stimuli/responses. I opened a new version of builder and forked “emotionbox” to create a new project with a new root folder (“emotionbox_v”). Then I changed the stimulus and response elements and pushed the experiment to Pavlovia. A new Gitlab repository and corresponding experiment were created.
Today I went back to the old experiment “emotionbox” and piloted it. To my surprise all the changes that I had made in “emotionbox_v” were applied to “emotionbox”. I’m surprised because these experiments appear to belong to different Gitlab repositories.
I have successfully reverted “emotionbox” back to how I intended. Is there a way for me to create a new version of the experiment without starting from scratch, but ensuring that my old experiment won’t be affected? Thanks!
This is indeed surprising! for some reason I get a 404 error when accessing your first link there - pleae can you confirm that project sitll exists?
Thanks,
Becca
Hi @Becca , actually I see you’re right that it is private. When I try to change the visibility settings in Gitlab, the dropdown menu is greyed out and not clickable. Any idea how I can access that menu?
I guess this might be because the project that THIS one is forked from is set to “private”. Googling didn’t give me any good idea about how to fix this though.
It looks like option (1) in the linked options in my comment above seems to have worked just fine! I think where I went wrong is that I did not realize that I would need to delete the git folder to keep it from re-establishing the original folder as the root folder instead of the new root folder (I guess that’s what happened?).
