Keep checksum file separate from ZIP archives when transferring Fastqs #883

Closed pjbriggs closed 11 months ago

pjbriggs commented 11 months ago

Addresses issue #882 by updating manage_fastqs.py's zip mode so that the MD5 checksum file is now a separate file (rather than being included in the ZIP archive with the Fastqs). The transfer_data.py utility has also been updated to accommodate this change. (Note that these changes don't introduce any new command line options for either of these utilities.)

There is also a minor bug fix in manage_fastqs.py to ensure that any filter on Fastq names is also applied when generating the checksums in zip mode (was previously not applied so all Fastqs were included in the checksum file).
