16		-openMINDS is the overall umbrella for a set of integrated metadata models for describing neuroscience research products in graph databases. The correct integration of these metadata models as well as the provision of a central access point is handled by an integration pipeline. All metadata models are developed on separate GitHub repositories, in order to facilitate extensions and maintenance of existing, as well as development and integration of new openMINDS metadata models and schemas. The integration pipeline ensures that the central [[openMINDS GitHub repository>>https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/openMINDS||rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] ingests all these GitHub repositories as [[git-submodules>>https://git-scm.com/docs/git-submodule||rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]], integrates the respective metadata models and builds the openMINDS GitHub pages, as well as ZIP files containing the respective openMINDS schemas in the supported formats, such as the openMINDS syntax (cf. below), JSON-Schema, or HTML. In the following we will summarize the contents and requirements for the central openMINDS GitHub repository as well as all metadata model git-submodules. The openMINDS integration pipeline will be handled in a separate chapter (cf. below).

	19	+Let us start with the [[central openMINDS GitHub repository>>https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/openMINDS||rel=" noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] which has a **main branch**, a **documentation branch**, and **version branches** (naming convention: vX; e.g., v1). Official releases (naming convention: vX.Y; e.g., v1.0) are tagged and provided as release packages.

	22	+The **main branch** hosts the general README, the LICENSE document, the CONTRIBUTING document, and the general openMINDS logo. In addition, it maintains the openMINDS vocabulary (vocab; cf. below) which provides general definitions and references for schema types and properties used across all openMINDS metadata models and their versions, as well as the bash script that builds the content of the documentation and version branches.

	25	+The **documentation** branch hosts the HTML files that build the [[openMINDS GitHub pages>>https://humanbrainproject.github.io/openMINDS/||rel=" noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]], as well as a ZIP file for each version branch and official release containing the respective openMINDS schemas in the currently supported formats, such as the openMINDS syntax (`.schema.tpl.json`; cf. below), JSON-Schema (`.schema.json`), or HTML (`.html`).

And last but not least, it holds the schema representations for all supported metadata formats created by the openMINDS integration pipeline (cf. below).
