The datahub is a repository for data storage only. It contains staging files which are validated and can be loaded directly into the cBioPortal.
Behind the scenes git-lfs is used to manage the large files. https://github.com/github/git-lfs
Validation status of all studies on Datahub master branch. This runs weekly using the validation code from the cBioPortal master branch. It also validates if the studies on cbioportal.org and on Datahub are in sync.
At cbioportal.org datasets page a zipped file with staging files from each study can be downloaded. These zip files are compressed versions of the study folders in the master branch of this repository.
It is also possible to download uncompressed staging files from this repository with git-lfs.
After you have installed git-lfs, configure it not to download all data files right away:
git lfs install --skip-repo --skip-smudge
Clone the git repository and install lfs hooks into it:
git clone https://github.com/cBioPortal/datahub.git
cd datahub
git lfs install --local --skip-smudge
Download the data files for a study folder, for example brca_tcga:
git lfs pull -I public/brca_tcga
git checkout master
git pull origin master
git checkout -b [name_of_your_new_branch]
