An empty file list is the one assertion here that ages unwatched. Nothing
can go missing and no ref can drift, so nothing notices when a core that
embedded everything grows a path. virtualjaguar said "No external BIOS
files are required or loaded by this core" while its source had grown
eleven filenames read from the system directory, and only a reading
found it.
fileless_audit looks for the request itself, the system directory ask, in
the sources each profile already cites. Over the 151 fileless profiles it
named eleven, of which two were covered by data_directories, six carried
an exclusion_note, and three had nothing written down at all: craft
writes its world database in that directory, dice stores the answer in a
variable no other file in the tree names, lutro hands it to the Lua game.
Each now says so.
The check settles: declared files, a declared directory, or a written
answer all end it, so what it reports is the set nobody has read yet. A
test holds the corpus at zero.
Upstream moved under 145 profiles: 679 refs shifted and 452 followed a
renamed file, against 6,483 that still anchor where they were written.
The recale rewrites the located ranges only, keeping the annotations and
the sentences that carry them, and 106 pins advance in the same commit
because refs and source_commit name one revision or the profile
describes two at once.
Nothing here was guessed. The 183 refs that are CHANGED, GONE or
AMBIGUOUS are untouched, and the 57 profiles holding them keep their old
pin until someone reads the diff: profile_sync refuses to recale a
profile while any of its refs needs a re-read. trident kept its pin too,
its annotated ref being one the writer will not rewrite.
49 libretro cores had type: game/utility/test instead of type: libretro,
breaking the all_libretro filtering in resolve_platform_cores and
excluding them from platform packs (e.g. cannonball missing from
RetroArch). core_classification already carries the descriptive role.
9 profiles with subdirectory-loading cores (cannonball/, nxengine/,
Citra/sysdata/, mame2003/, mame2003-plus/, mame2010/) now have path:
fields so cross-reference places files at the correct destination.
resolve_local_file now tries basename when name contains a path
separator (e.g. res/tilemap.bin -> tilemap.bin), fixing resolution
of files with subdirectory names.
add core_classification and upstream to all five profiles. kronos:
add ROM cartridge files (mpr-18811-mx.ic1, mpr-19367-mx.ic1), add
archive: field to STV blobs, remove unverified MD5 hashes, fix
cores list (remove yabause_libretro). jumpnbump: fix incorrect
note about embedded data. lowresnx, lutro, m2000: add missing
classification fields.
Every profile now has:
- profiled_date: date of source code analysis
- core_version: version from libretro-core-info .info files
- display_name: human-readable name from .info files
260/260 profiles complete. 294/294 libretro cores covered.
Standalone emulators (cemu, rpcs3, xemu, vita3k) versioned manually.
- Added profiled_date field to all 204 existing profiles for update tracking
- Created 56 alias profiles for cores that share BIOS with a parent
(e.g., mednafen_psx -> beetle_psx, fbalpha2012 -> fbneo)
260 total profiles covering all 294 libretro cores (204 unique + 56 alias).
