Joyce,
I did commit the change and also remove "rm" the .nc files. I did not
see an email either. Here are the 3 commands I used
1. git add
2. git commit
3. git rm
I guess "git rm" does not need a commit command.
When I run "git status" I get this message. I am not sure what "ahead of
'origin/master' by 4 commits" means!
git status
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 4 commits.
#
nothing to commit (working directory clean)

Awesome Denis thanks much. I will play around with this more soon and see
if I can't strip out some more files. Did you push your changes up to the
repo? I didn't see a commit email come through, but I'm not certain my
filters are working correctly with the mailing list migrations.

Joyce,
I deleted the .nc files found in my example directory for TRMM and ECMWF.
I have installed a README file and explain users how to retrieve the data
from the original data provider. TRMM is pretty straightforward, but for
ECMWF you need to register, obtain a key and download their Python package.
It works pretty well on my machine, let see what users say.
Regards,
Denis

I think that would be great Denis! I can go ahead and look at doing
something similar for the other ocw/ocw-ui components as well. I'm sure
this will help us out a good bit.
Thanks!

Michael,
I like the idea of having the NetCDF files in a external repository.
I was thinking that it might be better to point the people to satellite
data at the different DAACs so that they can download the files directly.
That would work for the "obs4MIPs" program. I would feel better about
it as well, I have been worried to be told by some data providers
(ECMWF)
that we are not authorized to distribute their original data. I
initially
did not think about this when I checked in my original code.
I just found out that ECMWF now allows people to download their data in
"NetCDF" instead of "GRIB" using Python [1]. I tried it before, but
could
only retrieve GRIB data and did not want to mess with "Grads" ctl files
and
CDMS2/CDAT package. So now, I could just create a script to download
the
right files and rename them to the appropriate filenames for obs4MIPs
examples.
I would feel much better about this. Let me know what you think.

Hi guys,
An unfortunate side effect of our export from SVN to Git is that we've
ended up with a rather bloated repository. We've had a large number of
binary files in our repo in the past and all of this has been rolled up
into a obnoxious ~500 MB pack file. I've been completely unable to clone
the repo on my home internet because it constantly times out and it's
painfully slow on my faster work connection.
To fix this problem I suggest we do the following:
- Remove all binary files from our repo and host them externally. For
example, NetCDF files can be downloaded when they're needed and cleaned
up
afterwards (for tests or examples).
- Remove all the bloat from our pack file. I was digging through stuff
earlier and found a number of very large and outdated files in our pack
file (~300 MB NC file, internal JPL presentations/files from a long time
ago, etc.). We should be able to use [1] to help automate this for us,
although we can also take care of it on our own if need be.
Let me know what you guys think the best course of action is. That being
said, dealing with this sooner rather than later would be nice =D
