Hi there,
Just downloaded v7.5.1 and ran sudo ./install_ocssw.py --install-dir=/opt/seadas-7.5.1/ocssw --git-branch=v7.5.1 --aqua. But got the following error:

Installing common (2 of 10)
fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'v7.5.1' at the same time.
Did you intend to checkout 'remotes/origin/v7.5.1' which can not be resolved as commit?
Error - Could not run "cd /opt/seadas-7.5.1/ocssw/share/common; git checkout -t -B v7.5.1 remotes/origin/v7.5.1 -q > /dev/null"

Any clue?

Thanks.

The OCSSW git branch only goes one decimal place so using branch v7.5 automatically gets you the 7.5.1 updates.

Use
./install_ocssw.py --git-branch=v7.5 --aqua

or just
./install_ocssw.py --aqua

Note: the only update to 7.5.1 over 7.5 is the addition of support for Aquarius mission. The Aqua mission is unaffected in this release so you don't really need to update if you are not processing Aquarius.

The downloads page gives:

4.  Run the installer:

The following will install the processing programs and required data packages for the MODIS-Aqua and SeaWiFS missions into the user's HOME directory (in the --git-branch option replace <version> with the desired branch. (e.g.--git-branch=v7.5.1):

It is worth mentioning that it is not good practive to install SeaDAS and the OCSSW processing system using root privilges (e.g., using sudo).

You should start a new topic for this issue so others can find it. I have done this, see Failures downloading SeaDAS 7.5.2 (all platforms).
