Things have stabilized enough to call this version 1.0. It contains a number of changes from the last year and a half.
- Faster copying / moving / swapping of GBZ objects.
- GFA compression/decompression changes:
- L-line overlap is now written as
0Minstead of*. - Option to extract GFA without using the node-to-segment translation.
- L-line overlap is now written as
- Minimizer index version 9:
- Payload is now 128 bits per hit (already in version 8).
- Parameterized over both key type and value type, allowing the use minimizer indexes without a payload.
- Option to provide a set of frequent kmers that should be avoided as minimizers, as in Winnowmap.
- Plain kmer indexes can also be used.
- Iterator over the kmers in the index.
- Compatible with version 8 but not with earlier versions.
- New graph operations:
subgraph(): Return a subgraph based on the given GBWT index (faster than using a constructor).
- New algorithms:
gbwt_construction_jobs(): Partition a graph into sets of components for parallel GBWT construction.partition_chains(): Partition top-level chains in a snarl decomposition between GBWT construction jobs.
