It looks like your repository has the branch 'mcal_daq' active, and part 
of the checksum is b2bc721.

The very good news is that it doesn't say "-dirty" at the end, which 
means that there are no uncommitted changes, yet :)

It seems like the branch/commit are not in any of the "official" 
repositories, I had a look. However, I did find 'mcal_daq' branches in 
some private repositories at GSI by Bastii, but I cannot find the 
b2bc721 commit. I also cannot find several of the commit messages.

The safest way forward would be if you could push your version of 
nurdlib to gitlab. It looks like you are currently a member of the 
project, so try:

 > git remote -v

If the gitlab repo is not listed there, do:

 > git remote add gitlab git at gitlab.com:chalmers-subexp/nurdlib.git

Then:

 > git push gitlab mcal_daq

I can then pull that and see how to get that into the main branch. Once 
that's done, I will ask you to try the new version to make sure it still 
runs correctly. And of course if there are problems with the above 
commands, let us know.

Best regards,

Hans
