better naming of files in variant detection/filtering steps #571

Open chrisamiller opened 5 years ago

chrisamiller commented 5 years ago

Per Tom's suggestion, we really should take a pass through the naming of files through the variant detection and filtration steps to add some consistency

We now have tools that allow for renaming: https://github.com/genome/analysis-workflows/blob/master/definitions/tools/rename.cwl

In conjunction with https://github.com/genome/analysis-workflows/issues/712, we should consider which outputs are confusingly named and try to make them more clear.

Step 1: Make a list of tools that could take optional input parameters specifying output file names, then work back up the tree
