We plan a change in the semantics of stack_solve_algo. Currently, values 0 and 1 actually implement the same algorithm (sim1/simk don’t actually implement the original relaxation algorithm). We propose to associate to value 1 the original relaxation algorithm, which will be available in bytecode at first (slower, but less memory-consuming). -- Ticket URL: <https://www.dynare.org/trac/ticket/11#comment:3> Dynare <http://www.dynare.org> The Dynare project

What is this installation ? If it is a custom installation, then just delete it. There is also a MinGW provided by Cygwin, but it is deficient and uses an old GCC version (3). In any case, you need to install the MinGW mentionned on the wiki page. And don’t forget to clean your PATH if it contains other installations of MinGW.

No, they are not needed anymore for compiling Dynare with MinGW. But keeping them is not a problem either. > 2) What happened to Git users such as our development team?

We still use it for the development of the Dynare source code. Concerning the precompiled binaries, I don’t plan to use a git repository for them, since they are going to change very rarely. Actually they’re going to change only if we introduce a new dependency for Dynare (for example when we added the GSL for the Markov-Switching code), or if we want to upgrade versions there. I will send an e-mail on the list if I update them. > 3) GitHowTo (still) suggests using "pull" to download but yuo say > you prefer us to use Fetch&Rebase.

Don’t use “pull” and then “rebase”, this will just mess up everything. The simple rule is the following : - if you have local commits which are not yet incorporated in the origin/master branch, then do a “fetch & rebase” - otherwise, if you have no local commit, a “pull” is fine (and in that case is equivalent to a “fetch & rebase”). Houtan is going to improve the wiki page on Git, I hope this will clarify things for you.
