Git clone E3SM-Project produces empty ${CODE_ROOT}/cime/ directory?

[jacob-stu-allen]

Hello again!

Apologies for my many questions -

In attempting to build my E3SMv2.1 case, I've noticed that the git clone of E3SM currently produces an empty ${CODE_ROOT}/cime/ directory. The run_e3sm.template.sh script attempts to find the cime create_newcase and xmlchange scripts here - but it's unable to find them.

Am I just missing something here in regards to CIME?

Thanks in advance,
Jacob

One quick update - when I also run git submodule update --init --recursive, which cimes (ha) to grab the cime scripts, I get a permissions error. This is probably an issue with my ssh key, and may be irrelevant here.

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

ERROR:

You will need to add your SSH key for the machine you are cloning into to your GitHub account:
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account
If you haven't generated an SSH key yet, there is a link there to the instructions for generating one.
