[petsc-dev] download problem p4est on Cori at NERSC

I think this will work because I have git when I configure on a login node
(Haswell). I build KNL by submitting a batch script (it takes to long to
fit in 30 minutes of an interactive session). That fails because git is not
available (can I just load the module ...) on a KNL compute node. It is
reconfiguring now, I'll let you know if it fails.
Thanks,
