How to include non variant sites in the output vcf of GenotypeGVCFs?

Hello
I'd like to include confident non variant sites in my downstream analyses. If I understand correctly, this was possible in previous versions with --includeNonVariantSites but I'm not seeing an option that allows me to do this in GATK4. Am I missing something obvious or is this currently not possible?
Thank you very much in advance and best wishes

I would also be interested in knowing the answer to this. Is it possible to include non-variant positions in the output of genotypeGVCFs using GATK4?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi @Sheila,
Do you konw when the --includeNonVariantSites option will be avalible for GATK4? My colleagues and I are in urgent need of this function.

Hi,
I am not sure when the team will get to this, but it is flagged as high priority. I will remind the team about this.

I'm wondering if in this time, the option "Include non variant sites" in the output vcf of GenotypeGVCFs is already available?
If not, someone could me give a tip how I can do that using another way?
@flaviarogerio Based on this release, this option is now live! You can always check back at that link for any further information on releases. Additionally, here is a post that lists some ideas for a workaround if you wanted to try other methods as well.
