Igir v5.5.1 has been released, serving as a zero-setup ROM collection manager for sorting, filtering, and patching files across any OS. The update primarily consists of dependency fixes and addresses a specific issue: it no longer attempts to correct file extensions for raw-copied archives when DATs aren’t supplied. This change prevents unnecessary detection efforts and issues with the –merge-discs function. Users can opt to disable extension changes entirely by using the –fix-extension never option. The release emphasizes maintaining consistent file behavior, with potential re-enabling of extension correction in future updates. Download available here.
Igir v5.5.1 has been released. This is a zero-setup ROM collection manager that efficiently sorts, filters, extracts, archives, patches, and reports on collections of any size across any operating system.
Igir Changelog:
This release includes just one fix, primarily consisting of dependency updates.
Fix: Extension correction will not be attempted on raw-copied files.
In scenarios where DAT files are unavailable, the default behavior of Igir with –fix-extension auto considers input filenames untrustworthy and seeks to amend extensions upon recognizing the file type. However, for archives that are copied directly (due to the absence of extract or zip commands, or when the zip command is provided but the zip archive is already accurate), Igir retains the original file extension, making file type detection unnecessary. @j9ac9k identified that this caused complications when used with –merge-discs, so the detection has been disabled for now.
To maintain consistent behavior, extension correction may be reactivated for these files in the future. If you wish to ensure that extensions remain unchanged, you can use the –fix-extension never option.
