   No modifications should be made to the directory after the job is started until it is
   finished (if the job fails, cleanup of this directory may be necessary) and it should be
   empty!
 --data: (root) directory to search in for t1 files (default: current work directory).
 --pattern: glob string to find image files in 'data directory' (default: *.{nii,nii.gz,mgz}),
