WIP: Pangenome Outgroups #1043

Open glennhickey opened 1 year ago

glennhickey commented 1 year ago

As it stands, this is just a simple option to specify a subset of the input genomes as outgroups when computing the ancestor (the rest of the alignment and resulting graph remaining unchanged).

Remaining work includes actually outputting and using the ancestor, as well as maybe exploring different ways of aligning. But a lot of this is blocked on getting cluster support for the pangenome, so I'll park this here until that's done.
