Description

This is a feature request, not a bug.

CMIP5 data has several scalar (0-D) variables; for example, zostoga, global average thermosteric sea level change. It is entirely normal for such a variable to repeat its values in a long time series. So the F3200 "suspecting a replicated record" warning is not useful in this case.

I would like the "replicated record" check to be disabled for scalar variables. Just this feature would reduce the number of spurious warning messages we get by thousands per experiment.

Testing for replicated records is done by default.
This could only be disabled by the configuration option
IGNORE_REPLICATED_RECORDS assigning a comma-sep-list of variables.

This feature is now expanded.

a) disabling for every variable just specify:
IGNORE_REPLICATED_RECORDS
b) disabling for specific variables provided by a comma separated list of names.
e.g. IGNORE_REPLICATED_RECORDS=tas,pr
c) disabling for each 0-D variable by assigning '0-D'
e.g. IGNORE_REPLICATED_RECORDS=0-D

Please, add this option to your local configuration file(s), if you would like
to use it. In this case, you would also have to svn update and recompile qC_main.cpp --> qC.x
