Experiment name is not added to metadata.yaml for legacy experiments #416

With the experiment UUID and branching changes to payu since v1.1 there is backwards compatibility with legacy experiments. For an existing experiment with output in the archive directory and no experiment_uuid, payu does generate an Experiment UUID and adds that to the metadata.yaml, as expected.

However it does not add the unchanged experiment name to metadata.yaml. It probably should.
