a Strain Engineering Repositories contain all the digital footprint produced during the engineering of a cell line. The repository provides general information about the cell line project (in this example, the barcoding proof of principle of S. cerevisiae). It also contains all the different “commits” that were made during the engineering process. b A commit represents a related set of changes introduced into a cell line. All commits have a unique digital identifier and some commits (decided by the user) may also have a physical identifier barcode that is physically inserted into the cell chromosome. Recovering the barcode by sequencing allows a cell engineer to recover the id of the commit containing all the digital footprint of the cell line.
