"Upstream project is dead" was a verdict published on the emulator page. The note now gives the date of the last commit on Yabause/yabause master, 2018-07-07 (7e38821d).
The pin 87b176a0 and tag v2.0.1 sit on preview (ahead 129, behind 0) and
not on the default xenios branch, which diverged (ahead 1784, behind 24).
The preview-v2.0.1 releases carry the dmg and ipa the notes name. With no
source_branch, profile_sync called the pin orphaned and listed 19 refs to
review that only measured the branch divergence. It now reads 1.
The get pages told a reader on another setup version to run `--check` after copying, with no command and no link, to someone holding a ZIP and no installer. The line now links the setup page's How to check section.
ecwolf.pk3 carried md5 c011b428, which its note said came from the .info.
The code checks no hash (src/wl_iwad.cpp:664-672) and the pk3 is built
from wadsrc/static/ at the pin, so no shipped file is designated by it.
The entry still resolves to the same file by name, and the platform lists
that pin this md5 are untouched.
FS-UAE scans its Kickstarts directory and names a ROM by checksum
(src/fs-uae/config.c:121-140, main.c:431-470), opens kick.rom by name
only as a fallback (memory.cpp:1597-1606) and loads AROS when no ROM is
found (memory.cpp:2374-2379). required: true and the launcher's dialog
came from RetroPie's fs-uae.sh, which retropie.yml launchers: records.
The entry is now optional and found by content. kick13.rom stays as its
label, the name amiberry and uae4all give this 256 KB dump.
142 tab bars held one tab, most of them "On the device" under a heading saying so. One item now stands alone, led by its label unless it names the place the text around already gives. The network route drops "Run the command on the computer" under the heading "From your computer", which keeps RetroPie in its word budget.
Step 5 built emulator packs one profile at a time, where two profiles never share a path. It now also builds each system pack that gathers several profiles and compares it with verify. The first run found five standalone MSX and ColecoVision packs where verify skipped the data tree of a profile the system filter left without files, and credited msx-emu's copies the pack never wrote. verify now places those trees too: 541 system packs, all equal.
DecideNAND (MelonDS.cs:684-706) reads the JPN, USA, EUR, AUS, CHN and KOR
bits of header byte 0x1B0. A DSi title sold in Latin America carries the
USA bit, so the USA NAND serves it. Tagged north-america alone, it fell
out of an --emulator bizhawk --region br,jp pack.
apt.cpp:128-140 picks the shared font archive by GetRegionValue: CHN, KOR
and TWN get their own, every other CFG region gets 0x00014002. The CFG
region set has USA and no Latin America value, so the USA font serves the
Americas, which the repo writes [north-america, latin-america]. With
latin-america missing, --region br,cn kept only the Chinese archive.
Without --platform, cross_reference and the site's gap report merged every
platform's standalone set, MinUI, NextUI and MyMinUI coredir: markers
included. A marker says which cores one platform hands a folder, so in the
union every core those three do not list got no layout: px68k showed 0 of
6 files and the global report lost 238 profiles and 1201 files.
merged_standalone_set drops the markers, and both readers use it.
verify_and_finalize_packs took every ZIP of the directory, so the launcher archives build_port.py writes to the same dist/ were judged as packs, failed, and were rewritten with a manifest after build_port had printed their hashes. Every name the builder gives ends in _BIOS_Pack.zip, and only those are taken.
Genesis Plus GX declares bios_U.sms and bios_E.sms with no hash. Only
.variants/ copies carried those names, so the name step served the Store
Display Unit BIOS and a 256 KB BIOS, while every platform pins v1.3 under
both. Two causes in generate_db: the v1.3 content's path was ZEsarUX's
sms.rom, which the resolver sets aside as another emulator's file, and a
name pinned by hash was refused when only variants carried it.
The scan now prefers a copy filed under its machine over one in an
emulator's own tree, and a name only variants carry can name the content
a hash pins it to.
Manifests: six contents change repo_path only (v1.3 SMS BIOS and five
ZEsarUX Spectrum ROMs, same sha1). On batocera, knulli, recalbox and
retrodeck the Genesis Plus GX bios_E.sms and bios_U.sms extras move from
the two variants to v1.3.
Raze lists three sized BLOOD.RFF versions and a fourth it takes without a check, the shareware RFF the collection holds. The Batocera pack printed two DISCREPANCY lines for it that verify never showed. A slot with an unchecked sibling now accepts any copy for that core, in the validation rules and in _matches_an_alternative. When every version refuses a copy, the message names all accepted values instead of the first.
_matching walked the reader's whole profile for each platform entry, 2,135 scans of MAME in one verify --all. Each profile is now indexed once per kind by name and by accepted hash. Over every registered platform, 10,524 lookups give the same answers as the scan, in 0.13 s instead of 2.42 s.
Both formats write every accepted md5 when the truth extends the platform's list without contradicting it, but only Batocera answered written_list, so landed_changes reported nothing for a diff the maintainer would find. Both now name the list they write when it holds several values.
The glossary's capitalised terms matched mostly inside product names and paths: Free Unix Spectrum Emulator, Windows Terminal, Documents/Dolphin Emulator, on 35 pages. A capitalised term after a capitalised word or a slash is now left alone. Acronyms keep their tooltip.
The meta description of each platform page was its summary followed by the label of a link, "ROCKNIX website.", and never said the page gives the BIOS files, their folder and the install command.
A profile whose every file comes with the app was titled "<X> BIOS files" and described by its system alone. The title now reads "<X> emulator" and the description says every file it reads comes with the app.
NP2kai and meowPC98 read font.bmp (PC-98 bitmap) and FONT.ROM (V98) as
separate files, each through its own reader (NP2kai font/font.c:192-195,
meowPC98 font/font.c:180-181). The V98 names hung on font.bmp as aliases
let a collection without font.bmp serve the PC-88 2 KB font.rom there.
FONT.ROM is now its own entry, at least 0x46800 bytes (fontv98.c:8, 51).
Manifests: np2/FONT.ROM and np2kai/FONT.ROM are added where the platform
did not declare them, served by the V98 font bios/NEC/PC-98/font.rom.
The Data page said a SHA1 lookup was enough because MD5 and CRC32 declarations are filed under the collection file's SHA1 too. That holds only for a file the collection holds: 702 platform MD5s and 18 CRC32s are filed under their own value alone.
The Version cell printed the file a version is read from, or its tag, as bare text beside a pinned Revision link. The file now links at the pin where the recorded tree holds it, and the tag links to its tree. cited_paths records the version files so the record can confirm them.
verify --platform recalbox --system nec-pc-engine printed no Core files line while the pack held six syscard copies for geargrafx: the section returned on an empty gap report before reading packed_extras. It now prints the pack's counts whenever they are not zero.
profile_needs read every profile entry, so --missing named 43 files the emulator installs itself among 50 needs and buried the six xm7 ROMs. A bundled entry is skipped unless a platform package leaves it out (not_bundled_on). The report now lists 7 needs.
find_missing kept undeclared files reached only by bundled entries, so auto_fetch searched for and offered files the emulator installs itself, and a placed copy would fail bundled_only.py --strict. RetroPie drops from 55 to 14 missing files.
_apply_writes promoted the bumped profile, then read its prose under the new pin. A NotCachedError, RateLimitError or UpstreamError from that read left the profile written with a pin the guard would refuse. The original bytes are now put back before the error goes on.
_follow_fork_base swapped the fork merge base in as upstream HEAD even when upstream_commit was newer than that base, as for melonds and easyrpg whose upstream is the standalone build they document. melonds read its Qt refs 825 commits back and reported 4 to review. A pin that descends from the base now keeps the HEAD, melonds shows 0 to review.
The emulator page showed the reason for pin_frozen and never the one for upstream_frozen, which 11 profiles record: mupen64plus read as left behind HEAD.
FBNeo reads sm1.sm1 inside neogeo.zip. The site resolved each member entry by its crc32, credited loose copies FBNeo never opens, and no neogeo.zip card named FBNeo. A member entry now resolves through archive_entry as the pack does, and its card names the archive.
drift_score ignored orphaned pins and moved repositories although triage_state says they are fixed before any ref is read: pcem ranked last at 0 with an upstream_commit on no branch. Each now weighs more than a GONE ref.
The refusal said the directory carried uncommitted changes without naming the profile, among about 375. It now lists the files git status reports, and says that --force writes over them.
--emulator mednafen_psx refused with 'use --emulator beetle_psx' although the profile names its target. The alias now selects that profile and says so on stderr, in verify, generate_pack and cross_reference alike. Launchers are still refused, and pipeline step 5 skips aliases since they compare under the profile they name.
The report named the folder of each file and left the copy to the contributor, one file and one .variants/ name at a time. --place copies each recognised file from outside bios/ to its folder under the name the lists declare, or to the .variants/ slot of a name already held, never over a file. A hash with two names or two folders is not placed.
validate_pr said all checks passed for random bytes and for a copy of a held file, and sent the copy to the folder that already holds it. Each now reads REVIEW with its next step, the status line counts them, and a held copy gets no placement hint. A copy inside a tree kept out of dedup is still accepted.
AmberELEC and EmuELEC declare blueMSX's Machines/<model>/config.ini and
Shared Roms/RS232.ROM with no hash. The name step served msx-emu's
ColecoVision config.ini in 192 machine folders and the 16 KB RS232.ROM,
while data/bluemsx held blueMSX's own file at that very path. A platform
declaration with no hash now reads its destination's tail in the data
directories before the name step. Profile entries keep the foreign-tree
redirect, so Dolphin's dsp_coef.bin dump still outranks the free copy.
Manifests: amberelec and emuelec omit 192 config.ini entries (held in
data/bluemsx only, so the installer has no URL) and serve colecodb.xml,
MSX2+/config.ini, MSXturboR/config.ini and RS232.ROM from blueMSX's bytes.
verify --all --target swich ended on 'no platform has it' after seventeen INFO lines, two of which held the suggestion. The refusal now names the closest targets across every platform with the platforms that have them, and the per-platform lines print only when some platform keeps the target.
A remote named upstream added as CONTRIBUTING said and never fetched made validate_pr --changed compare with the fork's main and exit 0 on nothing. It now fetches the project's main when the remote does not hold it. profile_sync names the fetch when --base is absent, and CONTRIBUTING adds git fetch upstream.
