bcftools (BCF calling tools) contains all the "vcf..." commands which
|
|
|
|
|
previously lived in the htslib repository (such as vcfcheck, vcfmerge,
|
|
|
|
|
vcfisec, etc.) and the samtools BCF calling from bcftools subdirectory
|
|
|
|
|
of the previous samtools. BCFtools are meant as a faster replacement
|
|
|
|
|
for most of the perl VCFtools commands.

Prior to the introduction of HTSlib, SAMtools and BCFtools were
|
|
|
|
|
distributed in a single samtools-0.1.x package. This old version remains
|
|
|
|
|
available from SBo as samtools-legacy.
