25.2.0

These release notes are automatically extracted from the full changelog.

Features

• export v2: we now limit numerical precision on floats in the JSON. This should not change how a dataset is displayed / interpreted in Auspice but allows the gzipped & minimised JSON filesize to be reduced by around 30% (dataset-dependent). #1512 (@jameshadfield)
• traits, export v2: augur traits now reports all confidence values above 0.1% rather than limiting them to the top 4 results. There is no change in the eventual Auspice dataset as augur export v2 will still only consider the top 4. #1512 (@jameshadfield)
• curate: Excel (.xlsx and .xls) and OpenOffice (.ods) spreadsheet files are now also supported as metadata inputs (--metadata). The first sheet in the workbook is read as tabular data. #1550 (@tsibley)

Bug Fixes

• titers sub: Fixes a bug where antigenic weights were assigned to branches for substitutions in the incorrect order of <derived allele><position><ancestral allele> instead of <ancestral allele><position><derived allele>. #1555 (@huddlej)
