nextflow: Run a specific release of a remote workflow from GitHub.
$ nextflow run ${user-repo} -revision ${release_tag}
try on your machine

This command is used to run a Nextflow workflow specified by the ${user-repo} repository and pointing to a specific revision identified by ${release_tag}.

Here's a breakdown of each part of the command:

  • nextflow run: This is the command to execute a Nextflow workflow.
  • ${user-repo}: This is a placeholder for the GitHub repository where your Nextflow workflow is located. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual user repository. For example, if your workflow is in a repository called my-workflow, you would replace ${user-repo} with my-workflow.
  • -revision ${release_tag}: This part of the command specifies the revision or tag of the repository to use. The placeholder ${release_tag} should be replaced with the actual release tag you want to run. For example, if you want to run the workflow using the v1.0.0 release tag, you would replace ${release_tag} with v1.0.0.

In summary, this command allows you to run a Nextflow workflow from the specified repository (${user-repo}) using a specific revision or release tag (${release_tag}).
