Six platforms are read from a branch: System.dat, batocera-systems.json, checkBIOS.sh, the MiSTer BiosDB, the RetroPie scriptmodules and the RetroDECK component manifests. Their YAML named the branch, so the native export patched whatever the branch had become since the scrape. Each scraper now resolves the branch head once, reads every file at that commit and writes it into source. The export follows a recorded tarball and a recorded tree as it already followed a raw file URL.
