 /**
- * Combines VCF records from different sources; supports both full merges and set unions.
- * Merge: combines multiple records into a single one; if sample names overlap then they are uniquified.
- * Union: assumes each rod represents the same set of samples (although this is not enforced); using the
- *   priority list (if provided), emits a single record instance at every position represented in the rods.
+ * Emits specific fields as dictated by the user from one or more VCF files.
