# iblpybpod #

**version:** 2.0.0

iblpybpod is a GUI application that enables interaction with the Bpod device from [Sanworks](https://sanworks.io/). Much credit 
and thanks go to the original creators of the [pybpod project](https://github.com/pybpod/pybpod).

This project has recently been adopted by the software development team at the International Brain Lab to bring the code into 
modernity.

### New feature branches:
- a `new_feature` branch is forked from the current `develop` branch
- the `new_feature` branch is then merged back into the `develop` branch
- the `new_feature` branch will eventually be deleted

### Release candidate branches:
- a release candidate, `rc` branch is a "pre-release" branch for beta testers on production rigs
- the `rc` branch is forked from the `develop` branch
- once the `rc` has been thoroughly tested, it will be merged into `master` and `develop`
- the `rc` branch will eventually be deleted

### Hotfix branches:
- a `hotfix` or `maintenance` branch is forked from `master`
- once the fix has been thoroughly tested, it will get merged back into `master` and `develop`
- the `hotfix` branch will eventually be deleted
