v0.2

New in this version:

• Multiple bug fixes
• Improved unique edge analysis resulting in better error correction and repeat resolution performance
• All code is now in C++ and all python dependencies were removed
• Switched to C++ 17 standard resulting in increased C++ compiler requirements (minimum gcc 7 is required)

Known issues:

• Very slow performance and suboptimal results on extremely covered (>150x) datasets
• Suboptimal results on low covered (<15x) datasets.
• Diploid assembly is still in experimental state, sometimes resulting in suboptimal assemblies. Also memory usage of the polishing stage may reach excessive values (150-200Gb) on mammalian-size diploid genomes

v0.1

This is the initial release of La Jolla Assembler designed for genome assembly from PacBio HiFi reads. It also contains the new version of jumboDBG tool for de Bruijn graph construction for arbitrarily large values of k.
