VCF file version produced by samtools0.1.6

[half_programmer]

Does anybody know what is the VCF version produced by samtools-0.1.6 pileup? The file produced does not have a head part, which I've checked with 'head *.vcf'.

The details in the file are like following

Y 2709606 T C T 0 4 4 0 50 0 46 1 16 0 0 0 11 0 1 30 47 15 0 0 0

Y 2709625 A C A 0 4 4 0 56 0 46 1 15 0 0 0 5 0 1 30 48 14 0 0 0

If I want to convert this type of vcf files into higher version, e.g, 4.1, is there any convenient way? Or I have to do the programming by myself?
Thanks.

0.1.6 is quite old, so you most likely wont get much of an answer. Is it possible to re-run with the newest version?

It claims to be verion 4.1 ...

From bcftools directory for samtools-0.1.16 ...

grep VCFv *.c
vcf.c: if (has_ver == 0) fprintf(v->fpout, "##fileformat=VCFv4.1\n");
vcf.c: if (h->l_txt == 0) fprintf(v->fpout, "##fileformat=VCFv4.1\n");

Thanks, all. Seems no easy way could do this other than self-programming. Samtools-0.1.6 was embedded in the data process pipeline, which I can't change. So fast the version was replaced by a new one.
