Updates
The SplitVariants task in GenotypeBatch was not successfully incrementing file name suffixes; after reaching
aaaaaz
it looped back toaaaaaa
. This resulted in variants being dropped from sufficiently large VCFs in the output.This PR updates SplitVariants to use numeric file naming for simplicity, with a default of 9 characters in the suffix for a maximum of 1,000,000,000 files (to ensure that there can be at least as many files as alphabetical naming with 6 characters in the suffix, which allows for 308,915,776 files).
Testing
-d 1
and verified that the error message was produced after 10 files were written.
