====================

This dataset contains T1 and T2 weighted MRI scans, susceptibility weighted
images, and diffusion imaging scans. These data are suitable for analyses
of brain structure.

How to obtain the data files
----------------------------

This repository contains metadata and information on the identity of all
included files. However, the actual content of the (sometime large) data
files is stored elsewhere. To obtain any dataset component, git-annex_ is
required in addition to Git_.

1. Clone this repository to the desired location.
2. Enter the directory with the local clone and run::

     git annex init

   Older versions of git-annex may require you to run the following
   command immediately afterwards::

     git annex enableremote mddatasrc

Now any desired dataset component can be obtained by using the ``git annex get``
command. To obtain the entire dataset content run::

     git annex get .

Keep data up-to-date
--------------------

If updates to this dataset are made in the future, update any local clone by
running::

     git pull

followed by::

     git annex get .

to fetch all new files.
