) has passed locallyCurrent behavior
As described in issue #526, the repository is cloned on four notebooks to obtain the data files required for computations. However, the total size of the data files is, in general, very small (less than 1 MB), and we are cloning more than 1 GB, hence getting a lot of unnecessary information.
New behavior
Instead of using the !git clone, we use the curl command to download only the required data files from raw GitHub user content from RocketPy's repository. The path name for data files also changed accordingly, e.g. "../../data/calisto/powerOffDragCurve.csv" was changed to "powerOffDragCurve.csv" .
Markdown comments were changed to match the commands. Instead of stating we are going to clone the repository, we state that we are downloading the data files.
Breaking change
Additional information
The dispersion notebooks create two folders "dispersion_analysis_inputs" and "dispersion_analysis_outputs" to save related data files. For those notebooks, we also create the directories when running the data download cells.
