Release 2024.02.05

Upgrade instructions

From #5655 (Move raise_or_lower_index and trace to Tensor lib):

The functions raise_or_lower_index and trace are now declared in DataStructures/Tensor/EagerMath/.

From #5656 (Simplify elliptic DG formulation):

In elliptic systems remove the auxiliary_fields and auxiliary_fluxes. Instead, formulate your fluxes in terms of the partial derivatives of the systems fields. See the FirstOrderSystem protocol for details.

From #5691 (Add a radial expansion to the BBH ID pipeline):

For the spectre bbh generate-id command, you must now also specify the radial expansion velocity with --radial-expansion-velocity/-a.

From #5684 (Solve for psi-1 in XCTS system):

In XCTS input files replace ConformalFactor and LapseTimesConformalFactor with ConformalFactorMinusOne and LapseTimesConformalFactorMinusOne in analytic boundary conditions and error observations.
