Introduces a complete query benchmark track to evaluate performance and verify consistency between dense and sparse index formats. Adds scripts to simulate fixed-size paired-end reads, pack a sparse presence index, execute queries in both modes, and capture wall time and RSS metrics. Includes a verification step that compares outputs by read ID to ensure content identity across parallel processing. Updates build configuration, documentation, and ignore patterns to support the new pipeline for two microbial specimens.
Rename the distance CLI subcommand to phylo across the codebase, documentation, and build configurations. Relocate source files from cmd/distance/ to a dedicated cmd/phylo/ module, update all internal routing references, and adjust benchmark scripts and Makefile targets to reflect the new command name.
Introduces scripts to compute and validate pairwise genomic distance matrices across multiple metrics. Updates the Makefile with build and comparison targets, adds .gitignore rules for generated outputs, and includes test CSV matrices and a Newick phylogenetic tree for validating the distance computation pipeline.
Introduces a Make-based orchestration for simulating, indexing, merging, filtering, and verifying k-mer counts and presence. Exposes internal builder and iterator APIs publicly, enforces mandatory leading slashes for predicate patterns, registers the `obitaxonomy` crate, and updates tooling configurations alongside documentation.
