Since Hifiasm-0.18.4 (r496) beta:

1. Fixed bugs for the UL-integration assembly (https://github.com/chhylp123/hifiasm/issues/367#issue-1483992070).
2. Improved the phasing results for the Hi-C+UL+HiFi assembly.
3. Integrated new option --s-base to enable homology detection in base-level. This might be helpful in improving the Hi-C phasing results for the samples with very high heterozygosity or centromeres.
4. The UL alignment step is 30% faster and the assembly quality of the UL-integration assembly could be improved. The bin files could not be reused.
5. Reconstructed more telomeres.
