# XYalign: Inferring Sex Chromosome Ploidy in NGS Data

## Background
The high degree of similarity between gametologous sequences on the sex chromosomes can lead to the misalignment of sequencing reads and substantially affect variant calling. Here we present XYalign, a new tool that (1) quickly infers sex chromosome ploidy in NGS data, (2) remaps reads based on the inferred sex chromosome complement of the individual, and (3) outputs quality, depth, and allele-balance metrics across chromosomes.

## If you cloned XYalign before April 5, 2017 please clone a fresh version
On April 5th, we removed a host of large files using BFG Repo Cleaner, which changed
the commit history of the repo.  Because of this, ```git pull``` will no longer work on clones
prior to this cleaning.  Therefore, if you cloned before this date (or can't remember when you
cloned), it's probably a good idea to clone a fresh version.
