GenPipes 4.5.0 Release Notes

What’s new?

This is a medium release with bug-fixes:

General

1. A bug in the clean command (GenPipes v4.4.5) caused the removal of the output directory. It is now fixed. We encourage everyone to use GenPipes v4.5.0 to avoid this costly problem of losing the output directory!

2. The automatically generated job_list file name now contains both the pipeline and the protocol name. This makes it much easier to identify the appropriate job_list file when running multiple protocols.

Pipeline Enhancements

• Tumor Pair Pipeline: - Added CollectWgsMetrics step - Improved display of QualiMap output in MultiQC report

• RNA Sequencing Pipeline: - Added md5sum for deliverables - Updated gtex version

• Chip Sequencing Pipeline: - A typo in error message was fixed

Quick! Where can I find it? I can’t wait!

Where is the detailed ChangeLog?

A ChangeLog (CHANGELOG.md) is available in the archive as well as in the repository.

Since we use git, there are many ways to get the details in many formats. One of our preferred ways is to use a script written by the author of the Ray assembler: Sébastien Boisvert, which lists the commits by tag and author:

Enjoy our pipelines on the many clusters where they are installed!
