Indeed this is much easier 😬
Doc improvements but otherwise LGTM. @sofstam @LilyAnderssonLee should we add here as 1.5 or to bouncy basenji? It's not a bug fix exactly... but it's not a fully fledged new functionality addition?
We do have potentially teh centrifuge fix coming up (if I can fix it...) so there likely will be a 1.1.5
I would say it is 1.1.5. |
Getting back with a review later today :) |

I'm somewhat concerned with this feature. If I remember correctly, FASTQC and fastp use the first 50 and 75 bp, respectively, to judge read duplication. Using longer sequences would drive up memory requirements and take longer. So the first question is, are we truly only removing identical reads with this? My second question comes from my inexperience with sequencing: If you have a dominant species in your metagenomic sample, how unlikely is it to have an identical read? |
Does it really? the README at least seems to implies it's some condensed hash of the whole read: https://github.com/OpenGene/fastp#duplication-rate-evaluation. That said, it's opt-in so it's still up to the user to decide if it's a suitable algorithm
An absolutely exact duplicate is quite unlikely, as

Thank you for your response, sounds good to me then. 👍🏼 |
