Release 4.6.0.0 · broadinstitute/gatk Download release: gatk-4.6.0.0.zip Docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/broadinstitute/gatk/ Highlights of the 4.6.0.0 release: We've fixed a serious CRAM writing bug that affects GATK versions...

So after much community backlash #GATK has reverted back to the ./. representation for no-calls.

The question is, will something like this occur again? and how many people have already switched away to other tools like #bcftools.

What’s everyone’s thoughts and experience on merging large numbers of gvcf files. Currently I’m running #bcftools merge, but as a tree merge process (multiple smaller merges that then get merged together). Are there any tools or hacks people are using? 🧬
