To cut the story short, to run a convolutional neural network model, I need an special version of nolearn, which has a url of the form https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn/tree/1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4/nolearn . However, there are no Download as Zip buttons at the page, nor I can download it with
git clone https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn -branch 1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4/nolearn
Simply,
git clone https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn/tree/1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4/nolearn
does not work, too.
Even, I have no idea what should I search for in Google!
Note: This is the last version which provided support for the class Objective, i.e. the command from lasagne.objectives import Objective is no more supported!
Other than in Subversion (SVN), git has separate namespaces for directories (file system folders), branches and tags. Thus https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn/tree/1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4/nolearn is not, per se, a branch. 1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4 is a commit ID, used here to refer to the revision created by the commit. dnouri/nolearn is the repository name on GitHub (repository nolearn on account dnouri) and the final nolearn in the URL is a directory within the content of revision 1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4.
The 'normal' way to get this code with git would be:
replicate the repository to your local machine
git clone https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn.git
(You can find this URL on the repository's page https://github.com/dnouri/nolearn, in the 'clone URL' field.)
enter the local repository
cd nolearn
check out the wanted revision
git checkout 1659e4811e498dc1f442d8e6486d0831f85255b4
change into the respective directory inside the repository
cd nolearn
