A names_searched list is one place the launcher fills with the first name it finds, so a core file it would never open once another name of the list is held is not reported missing. A place no declared file and no packed core file fills receives, under the launcher's name, a file the core accepts by content. The layer is applied inside find_undeclared_files, which verify and the pack builder both read, and a test reads their source to keep it there.
export_native now writes into exports/ by default, and beside each
platform's corrected file a report naming every change, where the run
printed five per kind. A new site page lists each platform with its
original file, a download of the corrected one and every corrected,
filled or withheld value. Each platform page links to its row.
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.
The site imported two parsing functions from profile_sync, so every change to the comparison tool redeployed an unchanged site. The grammar now lives in sourceref.py.
The sitemap gave every page the build date. A page now states its own date
and a mkdocs hook passes it on, or leaves lastmod out. The values added to
the site's code spans today are also escaped: a backtick in a profile or
file name could close the span and inject markup.
The Wanted page listed 79 dumps the collection already produces,
such as a Kickstart's byte-swapped words or the halves of a C128
character ROM. The pipeline now records which missing dumps can be
derived, in derivable.json, and the page moves them to a section of
their own that names the held file and the transform.
The site deploy still triggered on seven scripts it stopped importing
when the pack and site modules were split, and on the test suite it
never runs, so a builder-only push rebuilt the site for nothing. The
triggers now match the build's import closure in both directions.
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.
PR validation keeps its four jobs, its comment and its labels. The two
inline schema heredocs become validate_schemas.py --source-only, the
changed-file list is NUL-separated so a path with a space survives, and
the whole suite runs instead of one module.
The offline pipeline, manifest regeneration and mkdocs build stay out of
the pull-request path: they belong to the site workflow, which only runs
on main, and stacking them on every PR does not fit the free-tier
budget.
Deploy Site gains schema validation and rendered-site validation, and
checks that the committed README and CONTRIBUTING match what the
generator produces. write_if_changed compares with the timestamp line
stripped, so that check reports staleness rather than the clock.
Replace grep-based restore with SHA1 matching via database.json.
The old grep heuristic failed for assets with renamed basenames
(dsi_nand_batocera42.bin) or special characters (MAME dots vs
spaces), and only restored to the first .gitignore match when
multiple paths shared a basename.
Fix 3 broken data directory sources:
- opentyrian: buildbot URL 404, use release asset
- syobonaction: invalid git_subtree URL, use GitHub archive
- stonesoup: same fix, adds 532 game data files
generate_site.py resolves files on disk for gap analysis.
Without large files and data directories, the deployed site
showed 148 missing platform files and 207 unsourced core
complement files.
