Release 2023.01.13

Upgrade instructions

From #4271 (GH+CCE for a gauge wave):

I add one more template to SendGhWorldtubeData so that it can distinguish between LTS and GTS. Please remember to update your CceWorldtubeTarget @knelli2

From #4520 (Refine GenerateXdmf command-line interface):

When invoking spectre generate-xdmf pass a file glob instead of --file-prefix, like this:

spectre generate-xdmf path/to/VolumeData*.h5 -d SubfileName -o OutputName

You can also pass a single file now, which is useful for surface data like AH finder output.

Omit the subfile name to print all available subfiles.

From #4548 (Add Render1D.py to Python CLI):

Invoke spectre render-1d -h to run the Render1D.py script.

From #4472 (Add InterpolateVolumeData.py to Python CLI):

Invoke spectre interpolate-vol -h to run the InterpolateVolumeData script.

From #4532 (Swap meaning of objects A and B in BinaryCompactObject domain creator):

When using the BinaryCompactObject domain creator, make sure that ObjectA is on the right (on the positive x-axis) and ObjectB is on the left (on the negative x-axis).

From #4366 (Rename some of the time steppers):

Some of the time steppers have been renamed. Update your input files accordingly:

• AdamsBashforthN -> AdamsBashforth
• Cerk2 -> Heun
• RungeKutta4 -> ClassicalRungeKutta4
