Request for Extra CIGAR string in bamlet #170

Open jonnyelse opened 1 year ago

jonnyelse commented 1 year ago

Hi, The realigned bamlet outputed by EH contains a CIGAR string for each read showing the match to the best modified reference. I am wondering if it would be possible to get a CIGAR string outputed for the second best reference match as well? We could then use the difference between the best and second best match as a quality control measure to identify more questionable genotype calls. This would be useful when working with large catalogs, where some loci will have flanking regions similar to the repeat. Thanks
