cg bcol update newbcolfile oldbcolfile ?oldbcolfile2? ...
updates bcol file(s) in the old format to the new
There was an older version of the bcol format that did not support multiple chromosomes or multiple alleles. Files in this older format can be converted to the new using this command. Sometimes multiple bcol files were used for different chromosomes. To integrate thse into one new bcol file give the separate files for all chromosomes as parameters. "cg update" will (try to) extract the chromosomes from the file names.
