Each standalone profile records where its version is read: the source
at its pin (clk 2026-07-23-136-g9020107, shadps4 0.20.1 WIP, eden
v0.2.0-401-g26a03d2), the APK, binary or archive read (kind package),
or, where no reading can be made, kind unverified with the reason: a
host the tools cannot read, a forge gone or not answering, no build
recorded as read, a pin on another branch. Those keep their value,
unconfirmed.
One run of profile_sync --all --rebase-refs --fresh. Every guard held:
no ref to review, no prose left under an older pin, no file name or hash
literal gained in a cited file since the pin, no built_by pin and no pin
keyed by build mode. The site's record of cited source paths is rebuilt
with them.
Every cited block was read again at HEAD: no ref left to review, no
file name or hash literal added to a cited file since the pin
(--detect-new-files --watch-hashes), refs recaled with their pins.
Profiles built by a platform at a fixed commit, or whose bump would
leave prose under an older pin, stay where they were.
336 entries for files that arrive with the emulator named no hash, so
the collected copy was the only record of which file the release
ships. Each now carries the sha1 and size of the copy collected from
that emulator's own release, so the profile keeps the file's identity
once the copy leaves the collection. Entries whose name is a pattern
keep no hash.
Profiles, the wiki, comments, docstrings, command output and schema descriptions carried em-dashes, clause-joining semicolons, unicode arrows, box-drawing banners and check-mark glyphs. Each sentence was rewritten rather than having its character swapped. Hashes, paths, source_ref values and every cited file:line are unchanged, which a comparison of each parsed profile against the previous revision confirms.
validate_pr comments now say PASS and FAIL in words, and source_ref values in a profile's structured blocks render as code. test_prose_style fails if any of these comes back, in tracked files or in the generated site.
KEmulator replaced the native amrdecoder with a pure Java port of
opencore-amr and says so in AMRDecoder.java: no platform specific binary
is shipped or loaded any more. The profile still asked for it under nine
names across four platforms.
hatari and scummvm cited a line just past the option they mean.
Upstream moved under 145 profiles: 679 refs shifted and 452 followed a
renamed file, against 6,483 that still anchor where they were written.
The recale rewrites the located ranges only, keeping the annotations and
the sentences that carry them, and 106 pins advance in the same commit
because refs and source_commit name one revision or the profile
describes two at once.
Nothing here was guessed. The 183 refs that are CHANGED, GONE or
AMBIGUOUS are untouched, and the 57 profiles holding them keep their old
pin until someone reads the diff: profile_sync refuses to recale a
profile while any of its refs needs a re-read. trident kept its pin too,
its annotated ref being one the writer will not rewrite.
