Accessing aliases inside Singularity about cmssw-osenv

[cmsbuild]

A new Issue was created by @kpedro88 Kevin Pedro.

@Dr15Jones, @perrotta, @dpiparo, @makortel, @smuzaffar, @qliphy can you please review it and eventually sign/assign? Thanks.

cms-bot commands are listed here

@kpedro88 , I had also looked in to this and I think defining functions for cmsrel and cmsenv is better soultion. cmsrel should allow to use input parameters e.g. it shoudl be something like

cmsrel(){ scramv1 project CMSSW $@; }

@smuzaffar see cms-sw/cms-common#4

this has been deployed and working now

[muzaffar@lxplus]$ cmssw-el8
Singularity> cmsenv
