5 years ago Aha, the problem is the updated task setup in 698227d, specifically here. That shouldn't just assign the same list to a new name; then we end up modifying the original in-place (rookie mistake!) which takes effect across the main config and adds extra tasks to the "null" list.
Just slicing it for a shallow copy should be enough here since it's just a bunch of strings.
tasknames = self.config["task_null"][:]No single unit test would easily catch this, but integration testing would.
When the list of tasks does not explicitly include the word "metadata" the metadata task output should arrive in the directory specified by
implicit_tasks_path. This worked before the reorganization in #41 and the always-explicit feature in #42.
