The MITgcm code and documentation are under continuous development. For a while, MITgcm was developped and maintained under CVS but has been recently migrated to "git" on Feb 2018. Note that all the previous development history has been kept in the new MITgcm git repository while the former CVS repository is now frozen.

The MITgcm code and its companion documentation are now hosted at GitHub under a single repository.

• Access the MITgcm repository


• Detailed instructions on how to download the code:
  download a clone of the repository:

      % git clone https://github.com/MITgcm/MITgcm.git
  

  or just get a one-time archive of MITgcm code:
  • the most recent checkpoint "tar" or "zip" file
    from GitHub or from here.
  • the latest "tar" or "zip" archive
    or the daily "tar" file.
    

Note: Some outlying pieces (e.g., contrib area) are still alive under CVS and can be viewed through the CVS code browser.
