Hello,
The MS-sbvar code has been incorporated into the Dynare build system. As the code continues to be developed as an independent project, we decided to incorporate it into the Dynare repository as a git submodule.
What this means for you is that the first time you fetch and rebase these changes, you will need to run
$ git submodule update --init
from the root directory of the dynare directory. This will initialize the submodules and download the necessary files. After configuring, you should be able to compile the ms-sbvar code without a problem.
Henceforth, whenever you see a commit with the word 'submodule' in it, you will need to run
$ git submodule udpate
from the root dynare directory to obtain the updated files.
Best, Houtan
