Open Tree of Life script-managed trees

This directory is intended to hold large trees that are input to synthesis but are not

in phylesystem because:

1. Their large size makes manual curation in the curator app infeasible,
2. Their large size makes storage in NexSON a poor choice,
3. The entirely automated way of managing them calls requires no curation app.

TODO

Lots todo..

1. We probably want to create a phylesystem stub for each of these resources so that they:
   1. are more visible to users,
   2. can be ranked using the collections mechanism,
   3. can be indexed by OTI.
   4. can have their citations managed in a non ad hoc manner.
2. We need to figure out where we will clone this repo on https://files.opentreeoflife.org
3. Perhaps rethink this strategy of managing the files in a big git repo.
