Recalbox compiles libretro/mame at 0.258 and 0.278 itself; typed
libretro, both profiles were resolved for every all_libretro platform
although the buildbot RetroArch installs from has neither. A profile
now names the platforms that build it (built_by), and is reached only
when a platform lists it by name.
Step 2 refreshed the data directories, then the pack build and the
manifest build refreshed them again, so a tree tracking a moving
branch could differ between the pack and the manifest. generate_pack
gains --no-refresh-data, which packs the cached trees and still
fetches release assets; the online pipeline passes it to both builds.
The markdown report wrote to a directory named after the tooling that
happened to produce it. It takes --report-dir now, defaulting to
reports/, so nothing in the tree names anything but the project.
Em-dashes replaced throughout the sources and tests, rephrased rather
than swapped for a comma where the dash carried an apposition.
common.py had grown to 1833 lines by accumulation. Six coherent pieces
move out - untrusted parsing, digests, archives, generated artefacts,
release assets, dump catalogues - and common.py re-exports them, so the
sixty existing import sites keep working and migrating them stays
optional.
The site build is now reproducible, which is what made the move
checkable. It deleted its generated directories first, so every page was
new and write_if_changed had no earlier version to compare against: a
deploy republished six hundred pages for the clock alone. Directories
are swept instead, a page is removed only once nothing produces it, and
the body pass compares against the body of the file on disk rather than
against the decorated page. Two consecutive builds on the same inputs
now produce identical bytes; before, 1034 files differed.
A required-only build is narrower than the platform declares by
design, like the source-restricted variants already handled, so the
full expectation must not be applied to it. --region is also refused
alongside --manifest-targets, which carries no region dimension.
A region- or target-filtered build wrote to the same filename as the
full one. Both filters now appear in the pack and manifest names, and
verify.py accepts --region for emulator and system reports so the
coverage figures come from the same selection the builder used.
A declared hash that the local dump contradicts is not one situation. An
existence platform never reads the bytes, so withholding the file lets an
upstream list error remove something the frontend would have loaded; a
hash platform would reject it, so shipping it is pointless.
The mode now decides, at every point that had an opinion: pack building,
core complement, emulator packs, manifests, conformance and
_intentional_hash_exclusion. verify.find_undeclared_files follows, since
verify and generate_pack must agree file for file.
Also here: resolution reports which evidence matched rather than a flat
"exact", a path or filename can no longer override a declared hash, and
safe_extract_zip treats a Windows backslash as the separator it is
instead of refusing the archive.
