File handling on different platforms may result in different results in terms of file list ordering. Case sensitive vs. insensitive filesystems may also result in different outcomes to the same file handling operations. Clear standards are required to ensure that corgidrp always acts consistently across all platforms and when repeating the same operation.
2) glob, os.walk, and os.listdir have no strong guarantees on ordering of returned filepath lists. It may be useful to have a wrapper of one or all of these as part of corgidrp that returns filepaths in a preferred ordering, and to mandate use of this in all internals.

Describe the solution you'd like Two proposals: 1) Expand the contributing guide in the README to have explicit statements about file and path handling. Most importantly: all path operations should be done via pathlib (https://docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html) and/or os.path (https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.path.html#module-os.path).
