v1.9.0

• Two potentially breaking changes:
  • Remove the default -l (login shell) flag that had been supplied to each task command bash interpreter starting in v1.5.3, but caused interoperability problems (#603). New config options mentioned below can restore this flag if necessary.
  • Disallow implicit coercions of Boolean? Int? Float? File? Directory? to (non-optional) String, which should never have been permitted (#596). These had been subject to miniwdl check deprecation warning since v1.7.1. They will still validate with --no-quant-check.
• New config options (see default.cfg)
  • [task_runtime] command_shell and [task_runtime] command_preamble customize the task command bash interpreter. For example, to restore the login shell flag, set [task_runtime] command_shell = /bin/bash -l or environment MINIWDL__TASK_RUNTIME__COMMAND_SHELL='/bin/bash -l'
  • [file_io] chown to opt-out of the post-task chown of the working directory
  • [podman] exe to customize the invocation for the podman backend (for example, to remove sudo)
• Relax PyYAML version requirements (#625 @adamnovak)
• Improve MultipleDefinitions error messages (#622 @crabba)
• Allow underscores in the short tags used to identify each iteration of a scatter
• miniwdl zip: fix assertion error importing WDL from a sibling directory sharing a common basename prefix with the main directory
