Installing the ACME Model

When installing the ACME model for the first time.

Step-by-step guide

These steps assume you are a member of the ACME project.

Sign up for a free account at http://github.com
Add your github user name to the "About Me" section in your Confluence profile.
Email James Foucar (jgfouca@sandia.gov) and ask to be added to the ACME private organization on github. Include your Confluence account name so he can verify you're a member of ACME.
Log on to the platform on which you want to run ACME.
1. Make sure the platform is listed as supported in the Configuration Management page. If it is not, the ACME SE team will add it.
Install an ssh key from that platform to your github account.
Clone the repository to your local account with: git clone git@github.com:ACME-Climate/ACME.git This will create a directory called "ACME" with the code.
cd to the ACME directory.
You are now ready to create a case, build and run following the CESM Instructions. By default, you will be running the latest version of "master".
