- Corrects the edit distance comparison used to generate the network for the directional method.
- This will only affect results generated using the directional method and `--edit-distance-threshold` >1
Previously, using the directional method with the option `--edit-distance-threshold` set to > 1 did not return the expected set of de-duplicated reads. If you have used the directional method with a threshold >1, we recommend updating UMI-tools and re-running _dedup_.
