Making the tree content more flexible

[tomcornelis]

There is apparently the need to make the tree content more flexible, i.e. there are too many variables in the tree which are only relevant for specific analyses. This is for example the case in the displaced branches, where it is currently preferred to simply delete stuff which is unneeded (or for which the use is not clear right now), as disk space seems to be a problem.

This will probably again lead to a situation where branches become unmergeable and new features/recommendations/fixes are not shared anymore among branches. It could also again lead to issues like the same variable names being used for different things in different branches, or the reintroduction of duplicated variables.

In order to avoid this, we need to put more switches in the code like this:

heavyNeutrino/multilep/test/multilep.py

Line 121 in 060e39d

storeLheParticles = cms.untracked.bool('storeLheParticles' in extraContent),

The less-frequently used (very analysis specific) content should be switched on using

heavyNeutrino/multilep/test/multilep.py

Line 14 in 060e39d

extraContent = ''
