avoid using subdirectories of $HOME on login nodes shared between machines

Issue #2423 new
Roland Haas created an issue

On clusters where a single login node serves multiple different clusters or at least multiple different simfactory ini files we traditionally put each ET source try in a subdirectory named by the cluster name.

This however is confusing to new users who will often log into the cluster then checkout and try to compile the ET in $HOME.

It would be nice to:

  1. not rely on these subdirectories
  2. get rid of sourcebasedir for everything other than the sync and login and --remote subcommands
