Dependabot moved uv in pyproject.toml alone, while validate.yml and
CONTRIBUTING kept 0.12.9. Both pins move together, and a test now
fails when a package pinned in both carries two versions.
validate.yml runs export_native with continue-on-error, and pr_checks
failed the whole run on it. The step is now shown and does not fail
the run, and a test keeps that list equal to the workflow's.
validate.yml runs mypy against its baseline and checks that shellcheck
is installed, and pr_checks ran neither. The guard test only knew the
python, vermin and npm commands, so it missed both. A step can now pipe
its output into a second command, as mypy into mypy-baseline filter.
tests/__init__.py keeps a run offline, its scratch under tmp/ and its
installer cache its own, but only discover -s tests -t . imported it.
discover tests ran with RETROBIOS_OFFLINE unset, scratch on the /tmp
tmpfs and the user's real installer cache, the setting in which e2e
fixtures had written into the shared .cache/large. Every test module now
imports the package first, and a test fails on a module that does not.
test_verify_listing.py took its line with the previous commit.
profile_sync.py finds and fetches the project's main by itself. The
documented --base upstream/main failed in any clone without that remote,
where the same command without --base passes.
CONTRIBUTING sent any file over the browser's 25 MB through a clone, which GitHub refuses past 100 MB, and named a release only a maintainer can write to. It now gives the route validate_pr.py prints: an issue with the hashes.
CONTRIBUTING named the checks CI runs on a pull request and left out the npm build, validate_site.py, vermin and the pip packages the test job installs. A wiki-only change passed every listed check and failed CI.
generate_site.py writes the Starlight project in website/ and nothing
else: mkdocs.yml, the MkDocs hooks, theme overrides and stylesheet go,
and the wiki is written in Starlight's syntax. Both workflows set up
Node with the official actions/setup-node pinned by commit, run npm ci
from the committed lockfile, build with the strict link validator and
check the result with validate_site.py.
The search weighs a page by what it answers: Start here pages first,
a system page's cards and file names before a guide citing them, deep
guides, launchers, aliases and frozen copies after. Status badges,
hash blocks and the export change lists leave the index. The ranking
sits at the centre of a range where the 13 queries of search_gate.py
all answer, in the search box itself.
839 pages, every URL and 45,611 ids match the MkDocs build. The tests
read the Starlight content and syntax.
The redesign moved the technical questions to technical-faq.md, made the Get your files rows generated from each platform key and reduced getting-started.md to links. Tests now read those places: the pack-row test reads the rendered page. The new site scripts go through run_cli and refuse abbreviated options. The three maintenance image tools are exempt by name from the build dependency rule: their output is committed and the build only reads it. siteguides.py now triggers the site deploy, and the recipe counts match the store.
A browser upload into bios/ lands on a fork and opens the pull request, and CI already hashes the file and names its folder. CONTRIBUTING asked for a fork, a clone, five packages and the whole suite, and promised a PR comment that a fork's read-only token cannot post. The issue chooser links the upload page.
The contributor install line left out mkdocs-material and
pymdown-extensions, so pipeline step 8b (render site) was skipped.
The ranges are the ones deploy-site.yml installs, and a test reads
them from the workflow.
