gitignored_paths read a missing file as an empty registry: nothing to
restore, nothing unsatisfied, exit 0 with every release asset absent.
The run now stops with the path it could not read.
fetch_large_file verified a cached copy and returned its name, which another run replaces when the release serves a re-upload: the caller then packed bytes it never verified. The returned path is now a hard link under .cache/large/.by-sha1/<sha1>/, kept only if it holds the inode that was hashed. Revisions no name holds are dropped a day later. restore_large_files hashes each copy before moving it into place.
argparse completed a prefix into the only flag starting with it:
slots.py --emulator read profiles from a directory named after the
emulator and reported nothing, and pipeline.py --all built every pack
variant. Every parser now refuses an abbreviation.
A CI checkout omits every file over 50 MB, so verify and generate_pack
resolve those database entries against a disk that does not hold them and
report them missing. The generated README then stops matching the
committed one for a reason that has nothing to do with staleness.
restore_large_files.py writes them back from the release cache, matched by
SHA1 rather than by name, and only where the path is gitignored and
absent. The site workflow runs it, and refreshes the data directories, before
generating.
