generate_pack kept a private .gitignore parser whose cache ignored the
root it was asked about, and generate_db a copy of the shared one. Both
now read largefiles.load_registered_paths, cached per root. Test modules
whose main block preceded their last class end with it again.
Batocera, ROCKNIX and Recalbox find a file through the core that wants
it. Additions now carry that core under the platform's own name: the
emulator/core pair checkBios reads (ROCKNIX's from its emulators
package), or Recalbox's core attribute. One with no nameable core, or
filed in a system gated on another core, is counted as not stated.
Region filtering ranked every declared file, held or not, so a request
answered only by a missing file dropped the held fallback and emptied
the slot. Only held files now decide what gives way; the missing better
match stays reported.
Annotations and text after a located head were discarded before
anchoring, so a citation written there never moved with its pin:
zesarux cited two macros four lines off. The leftover text of every
source_ref is now scanned as prose, and the two citations are fixed.
Sixteen prose citations wrote "file fn() lines N-M", a form the pin
tracker never reads, and four had fallen behind their pins. Each is now
a repository path with the span read at the profile's pin, and a test
refuses the untracked form.
A data directory copy found by name was returned without the size and
Adler-32 checks the name steps over bios/ apply. The verdict now runs
both, for the cache walk, the foreign-tree fallback and release assets.
Dolphin and its forks hash dsp_rom.bin and dsp_coef.bin together and
warn on any combination outside known_roms. The profiles now carry the
accepted pairs, and the resolver keeps both files inside the first pair
the collection holds whole: MMJR and Ishiiruka were served the free ROM
beside the official coefficients.
A filename-agnostic profile ships its scan candidates, never its named
entries, and the gap report skips it whole. Its entries no longer
arbitrate a destination: RetroArch keeps the GameIndex.yaml it declares
instead of the ARMSX2 copy.
In existence mode the builder packs a core's file at a destination the
platform declares and does not hold, and counts the declaration met.
verify now reads the same placement and reports it OK, so both sides
agree on the platform's count.
A profile lists each version its code takes under one name. The core
extra carries the first; a held copy matching another entry of the same
profile is no longer reported as a hash discrepancy.
Recalbox builds seven board images with different emulators. The new
target scraper reads each board's defconfig against the package every
system.ini core names. The names that reached no profile are mapped to
the projects Recalbox builds or profiled from their source, and the
mupen64plus video plugins are set aside.
ROCKNIX builds a different emulator set per SoC, and without a target
list an H700 handheld received the PS2, PS3 and GameCube firmware of
emulators its image lacks. The new target scraper reads the emulators
metapackage per device; seven cores ROCKNIX ships get profiles and the
Super Famicom Box ROMs one of them needs are collected.
RetroArch pins 23 ScummVM engine-data files and FBNeo's hiscore.dat at
revisions upstream history still holds; they are now collected. The
two profiles claim the revision their core is built from, so the pack
keeps serving the core its own files and the pins sit beside them.
