What this message implies? It is a bit confusing.

Hi Sunta3iouxos,

snakemake lists reasons for executing of each rule, at least since a couple of versions. "Missing output files" is one of the reasons a rule would be executed.

Hope this helps,

Best,

Katarzyna

Now I understand. This is a rule that will check if the expected output is there. If it is it will skip this step. It is a check that will resume the process if it fails for any reason. Thank you.
