`cargo fmt --all -- --check` has failed on every run in this repository's
history, identically on `main` and on every branch. This is #12.
Mechanical: `cargo fmt --all`, nothing else. 154 files, all `.rs`, no other
extension touched. `cargo check --workspace` exits 0 afterwards, so nothing
changed semantically.
ON THE ORDERING, WHICH WAS THE REAL QUESTION.
HANDOFF-2026-09-06 section 7 warns this is the expensive fix: a whole-tree
reformat before #7 and #8 return "would put a conflict in every file of 861
commits and make the reviews those items exist to enable unreadable".
That is measurably too pessimistic, and it had been reasoned rather than
tested. Measured here by three-way merging a rustfmt'd `main` against both
unmerged branches, file by file:
file/branch pairs tested 32
merges CLEAN 28
merges CONFLICTING 4 (8 conflict hunks total)
sylpheed-cli/src/main.rs 1 hunk
sylpheed-export/src/check.rs 1
sylpheed-export/src/screen.rs 4
sylpheed-export/src/video.rs 2
All four are against `auto/frame-blend-draw-path` only;
`auto/port-p6-audio` does not conflict anywhere. The earlier framing --
154 dirty files, 133 that cannot collide, 21 that can, the collision set
carrying 147 of 774 hunks (19%) -- reproduces exactly. What it did not say
is that most of the 21 still merge cleanly, because rustfmt's edits and the
branches' edits rarely land on the same lines.
So the cost of sweeping now is 4 files and 8 hunks for one branch, against
a check that is otherwise red forever. Deliberately NOT folded into the
WASM PR: 154 reformatted files would make that one unreviewable.
Closes#12
Retried the format probe with the fmt chunk built to synth_xma1_fmt's exact
byte layout, and with the bank's own RIFF sub-wave decoded through the same
pipe as a CONTROL so a broken harness cannot masquerade as a result.
The channel count is the whole story:
bank lead B channels=2 channels=1
VOICE_D_450 16384 1792 46756
VOICE_D_451 2048 1792 896 (all-zero region: control)
VOICE_D_452 14336 1792 30154
VOICE_D_453 45056 1792 203648
VOICE_D_454 59392 1792 294440
channels=2 yields EXACTLY 1792 bytes for every bank regardless of size -- one
frame, then it stops. That constant is the tell. At channels=1 the same data
yields up to 113x more, and the control sub-wave decodes to 13568, so the
pipe works.
Why the previous probe got 0 bytes everywhere is now named: I read
synth_xma1_fmt(2, 2, 48000)'s second argument as a STREAM COUNT when it is a
CHANNEL MASK, and built the WAVEFORMATEX around that misreading.
Also recorded as a refutation, because it was tempting: solving for the
sample rate as decoded-samples / last-subtitle-cue does NOT converge. D_453
implies 21665 Hz -- close enough to 22050 that I nearly wrote it down -- but
D_450 implies 5844 Hz. No single rate explains both, and the decodes are
visibly partial (samples per input byte ranges 2.10-4.96 where a clean decode
would be near-constant).
So the container is identified and the duration is not. Next step recorded:
find why FFmpeg stops early, likely the hardcoded packet/subframe fields.
