This is fast when SSD is available but fails to scale to the fast-growing datasets.
(For example, the newest edition of [Kinetics](https://deepmind.com/research/open-source/open-source-datasets/kinetics/) has 650K videos and the total frames will take up several TBs.)
The latter saves much space but has to do the computation intensive video decoding at execution time
1. The git commit id will be written to the version number with step d, e.g. 0.6.0+2e7045c. The version will also be saved in trained models.
It is recommended that you run step d each time you pull some updates from github. If C++/CUDA codes are modified, then this step is compulsory.
2. Following the above instructions, mmaction is installed on `dev` mode, any local modifications made to the code will take effect without the need to reinstall it (unless you submit some commits and want to update the version number).
