Upstream PR Status
This table cross-references every change carried in bwa-mem3 main to its
corresponding upstream bwa-mem2 PR or issue. “Fork-only” means no upstream PR
exists; the change may be submitted upstream in the future or may be
fork-specific by design. “Open” means the upstream PR or issue existed at the
time of bwa-mem3’s implementation but had not been merged. Upstream status is
current as of the bwa-mem3 0.1.0-pre release.
For prose descriptions of each change, follow the links in the “bwa-mem3 PR” column to the relevant deep-dive page section.
