My understanding of that cime_config repository is that it serves the same role for a full cesm checkout that individual components' cime_config serve for those individual components. In particular: my impression is that https://github.com/cesm-development/cime_config is only needed for all-active cases, so there shouldn't be a need for (e.g.) CTSM or CAM standalone checkouts to include it.\r\n\r\nThe advantage of folding that in is that we'd have one less repository for which we need to manage issues, etc.\r\n\r\n@mvertens @jedwards4b @fischer-ncar or others: Any thoughts on this?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/ESCOMP/cesm/issues/comments/363884190","html_url":"https://github.com/ESCOMP/cesm/issues/20#issuecomment-363884190","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/ESCOMP/cesm/issues/20","id":363884190,"user":{"login":"gold2718","id":1588651,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/1588651?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718","html_url":"https://github.com/gold2718","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/gold2718/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-02-07T19:33:10Z","updated_at":"2018-02-07T19:33:10Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"I suggest that a better way to do @cacraigucar's test (one I do quite often) is to use a consistent CESM checkout (e.g., CIME + cime_config). My steps would be:\r\n\r\n1. Edit the `[cam]` entry in `Externals.cfg` to point to my branch.\r\n2. Run `manage_externals/checkout_externals` to update my CESM sandbox\r\n3. Run the test\r\n\r\nTo me, this seems to be pretty equivalent and I get more confidence using a CESM checkout instead of a patched CAM checkout."}}
