Limitations

Unfortunately, the useOneFile on setting limits the hub to one assembly. The useOneFile on setting works by having the genomes.txt file point to only one trackDb.txt file, which is the file itself. Although this method limits you to one genome assembly, using the setting grants the advantage of not embedding file names in the hub architecture. So a simple name change to a hub file will no longer require editing the contents inside the hub.txt and genomes.txt files.

Converting an existing Track Hub to one file

Converting an existing track hub to use the new setting does not require much editing. Simply concatenate the three files into one, with the contents of hub.txt, genomes.txt, and trackDb.txt, in that order. Using the URL to the single file on the -My Hubs page will allow you to view your +Connected Hubs page will allow you to view your track hub.
