It turns out that when resuming a Nextflow pipeline, a work directory will be re-used if all the same input conditions (file names, sizes, timestamps, parameters, etc.) are met: https://training.nextflow.io/basic_training/cache_and_resume/#how-resume-works
When run, Megahit creates a directory called MEGAHIT. Occasionally, when resuming the pipeline after a Megahit failure, the same work directory is used. As it has previously been used, the directory still exists. The Megahit process then fails as it detects this directory, which it wants not to exist.
MEGAHIT has a force overwrite option, but I think just deleting the MEGAHIT directory on detection at the start of the script is more robust and less likely to result in some error I haven't thought of.
