v1.5.0
Major changes to how input handling, metadata wrangling, and clustering.
Input handling:
- EPITOME will now automatically download all complete sequences and associated metadata, unless told not to.
- Input QC is now handled in R, rather than Bash to aid metadata capture on the backend
Clustering:
- Switched from Mash to Sourmash for better ANI prediction
Metadata:
- Sequence metadata is now summarized for each reference. This can be used for things like predicting sample taxonomy or host based on the reference genome metadata.
