option to allow number=A fields with too few values #129

@snarfed

Description

@snarfed

we currently have a couple number=A INFO fields in our VCFs that often only have one value. right now, VT's validation is strict and doesn't allow these. it's right, of course, and we should either fix them or remove them from our VCFs...

...but in the meantime, i've been using a small hack to allow these, and put the value in just the first allele (again, incorrect, i know :P): snarfed@1aa4f4f . it's from before parts of bigquery_vcf_schema.py were refactored into processed_variant.py (cc @bashir2).

would you all consider maybe allowing this, or doing something similar, with a flag? maybe with --allow_malformed_records? i'm open to alternatives.
