Description

In the UFS coupled test, any existing GOCART history files need to be removed before the model starts. We hope to have a configuration variable to control if model can overwrite an existing GOCART history file.

Research direction

Start by locating the UFS coupled test's run configuration file and the startup code that handles existing GOCART history files. Trace how configuration values are read before the model starts, and identify how the coupled test can verify the setting's behavior for existing files.
