JuRSE Code of the Month - June 2024

Each month we highlight a code from Forschungszentrum Jülich and this month's code comes from the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine, Brain and Behaviour (INM-7).

Datalad
Datalad is a tool for the joint management of code, data, and their relationship, built on top of the version control systems Git and git-annex. It adapts principles of open-source software development and distribution to address challenges of data management, data sharing, and digital provenance capture.

JuRSE selected highlights
A research software helping research software engineers and research data managers alike. It's well-maintained by lots of contributors inside and outside of FZJ and has a great website to get (and keep) people involved. They show that RSE is more than writing good code.
