Utility to perform exploration, archiving and curation of local NGS data.

The initial aim is to automate each stage so that it is easy to return to a partially processed directory and be able to review and pick up again with minimal effort.

A secondary aim is to automate the process of examining data to uncover relationships between data files, understand and annotate the contents, and safely remove files that are no longer required.

Depends on the genomics-bcftbx and auto_process_ngs modules.

To create test data use the make_mock_solid_dir.py` utility from thegenomics-bcftbxrepo.
