Should there be. top-level CMakeLists.txt?

Should there be a top level CMakeLIsts.txt, or should MESHER and SOLVER be compiled separately?
Looking back at this fix:
e9f73ba
seems to indicate that there should be a top-level build. Generally, the build instructions in the documentation are pretty vague. If you can clarify some of the finer points, I can cut a Fork and help with that.
Possibly answering my own question, it looks like, yes, and that this disappearing CMakeLIsts.txt file has been a (probably git promoted problem for a while). It looks like the most recent commit with a top level CMakeLists.txt is: 4e5c7b1a3d5df6fd664e65ad9ab7bef9f2f1f1bd
Is that correct?
... but then I see a later commit where the cmake directory appears to be intentionally removed. I restored both of these from their most recent commits and appear to have compiled the code (still needs a test), but I would certainly appreciate any guidance from the developers. Thanks in advance!
Hi @markyoder ,
apologies for the late reply. Correct, cmake was removed deliberately, because we found that it was not beneficial for the relatively easy compilation task we have.
Run
$ copy_templates.sh
in the main directory to create makefiles and then do
$make
Best,
Simon
