- Update to 1.10.2
  * This release fixes crashes reported on files including integer
    INFO tags with values outside the range officially supported
    by VCF. It also fixes a bug where invalid BCF files would be
    created if such values were present.
- Update to 1.10.0
  + Numerous bug fixes, usability improvements and sanity checks were added to prevent common user errors.
  + The -r, --regions (and -R, --regions-file) option should never create unsorted VCFs or duplicates records again. This also fixes rare cases where a spanning deletion makes a subsequent record invisible to bcftools isec and other commands.
  + Additions to filtering and formatting expressions
    * support for the spanning deletion alternate allele (ALT=*)
    * new ILEN filtering expression to be able to filter by indel length
    * new MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE, STDEV, phred filtering functions
    * new formatting expression %PBINOM (phred-scaled binomial probability), %INFO (the whole INFO column), %FORMAT (the whole FORMAT column), %END (end position of the REF allele), %END0 (0-based end position of the REF allele), %MASK (with multiple files indicates the presence of the site in other files)
  + New plugins
    * +gvcfz: compress gVCF file by resizing gVCF blocks according to specified criteria
    * +indel-stats: collect various indel-specific statistics
    * +parental-origin: determine parental origin of a CNV region
    * +remove-overlaps: remove overlapping variants.
    * +split-vep: query structured annotations such INFO/CSQ created by bcftools/csq or VEP
    * +trio-dnm: screen variants for possible de-novo mutations in trios
  + annotate
    * new -l, --merge-logic option for combining multiple overlapping regions
  + call
    * new bcftools call -G, --group-samples option which allows grouping samples into populations and applying the HWE assumption within but not across the groups.
  + csq
    * significant reduction of memory usage in the local -l mode for VCFs with thousands of samples and 20% reduction in the non-local haplotype-aware mode.
    * fixes a small memory leak and formatting issue in FORMAT/BCSQ at sites with many consequences
    * do not print protein sequence of start_lost events
    * support for "start_retained" consequence
    * support for symbolic insertions (ALT="<INS...>"), "feature_elongation" consequence
    * new -b, --brief-predictions option to output abbreviated protein predictions.
  + concat
    * the --naive command now checks header compatibility when concatenating multiple files.
  + consensus
    * add a new -H, --haplotype 1pIu/2pIu feature to output first/second allele for phased genotypes and the IUPAC code for unphased genotypes
    * new -p, --prefix option to add a prefix to sequence names on output
  + +contrast
    * added support for Fisher's test probability and other annotations
  + +fill-from-fasta
    * new -N, --replace-non-ACGTN option
  + +dosage
    * fix some serious bugs in dosage calculation
  + +fill-tags
    * extended to perform simple on-the-fly calculations such as calculating INFO/DP from FORMAT/DP.
  + merge
    * add support for merging FORMAT strings
    * bug fixed in gVCF merging
  + mpileup
    * a new optional SCR annotation for the number of soft-clipped reads
  + reheader
    * new -f, --fai option for updating contig lines in the VCF header
  + +trio-stats
    * extend output to include DNM homs and recurrent DNMs
  + VariantKey support
