BWA-0.7.13 (r1126)
This release fixes a few minor bugs in the previous version and adds a few
minor features. All BWA algorithms should produce identical output to 0.7.12
when there are no ALT contigs.
Detailed changes:
- Fixed a bug in "bwa-postalt.js". The old version may produce 0.5% of wrong
bases for reads mapped to the ALT contigs. - Fixed a potential bug in the multithreading mode. It may occur when mapping
is much faster than file reading, which should almost never happen in
practice. - Changed the download URL of GRCh38.
- Removed the read overlap mode. It is not working well.
- Added the ropebwt2 algorithm as an alternative to index large genomes.
Ropebwt2 is slower than the "bwtsw" algorithm, but it has a permissive
license. This allows us to create an Apache2-licensed BWA (in the "Apache2"
branch) for commercial users who are concerned with GPL.
