Documentation not updated to include sort-by option
When working with a student we discovered that the config file (at least for the small bns bank) at https://git.ligo.org/gstlal/offline-configuration does not yet include a sort-by line in the svd options, which is now required to be defined by the user. I believe it used to default to duration, but now if you don't add the sort-by option your Makefile fails because the bank splitter tries to pass the option --sort-by None
. The documentation also doesn't include this information.
I'd be happy to help the student write a MR to address this, but wanted to open an issue and check what the right procedure to go about this is first. Should we open a MR here for the documentation and then just push the changes to the offline-configuration repo, or should we open a separate MR there to add the option to the config files?
