Description

Proposed changes for the commands currently named cg store to be renamed to avoid confusion with the cg workflow <workflow> store. The purpose of the command is (mostly) to make decompressed Fastq files available for analysis by updating Housekeeper. My suggestion for the new name is prepare because:

  • Not all files are FASTQs ( demultiplexed-run includes all bundle files)
  • The command never starts decompression — so "decompress" would be misleading
  • "link" already means filesystem linking in other cg commands, not Housekeeper registration
  • "ingest" implies raw data, but the files are already compressed/demultiplexed in the system
  • "stage" conflicts with the staging environment terminology used by the team
  • "prepare" might be to general but at least covers the shared intent: making files ready for analysis, regardless of the specific mechanism

But the name needs to be discussed - this PR is just to illustrate what changes are needed, less than I anticipated.

cg store qc-metrics is left untouched since it has a very different purpose from the others
