[MITgcm-devel] instruction about downloading

Hi there,

you probably discussed this already in one of your doc-fest meeings (or 
another time), but when I asked a collegue this morning to follow the 
instruction on
http://mitgcm.org/using_cvs.html
and download the code, she did this:
cvs co MITgcm_contrib
(which, of course is not what you can read on the web-page, but "cvs co 
MITgcm MITgcm_contrib")

Do the instructions suggest checking out *both* MITgcm and 
MITgcm_contrib? I don't think that a first time user is really 
interested in the contrib and you get a lot of stuff from 
MITgcm_contrib, or is this a singular opinion?

Just wondering,

Martin
