New 1.3.1 versions of Samtools, BCFtools, and HTSlib have been released. This is mainly a bug fix release, fixing a number of bugs and issues in December's 1.3 release. In particular:
* Improved management of samtools sort temporary files. Running several separate "... | samtools sort | ..." pipelines simultaneously in v1.3 could lead to the sort commands corrupting each other's temporary files. This is now fixed, and the functionality of the -T PREFIX option is improved. * All samtools command are now more careful about checking for I/O errors, especially when writing output files. * BCFtools has fixes to numerous commands and plugins, and has a new GTisec plugin courtesy of David Laehnemann.
