v1.9.1
Release Highlights
There are a lot of fixes and tweaks in this release. I'm intending a v2 release when I'm able to finish the parent/child inference feature, and had been holding back these changes for that, but there have been enough bug fixes that warrant an earlier release.
Feature: progress bar totals increment during file scans
When scanning directories with a lot of files (likely most obvious with --input option), igir would wait until the end of file scanning to indicate how many files it had found. Now, when specifying directory names (unfortunately globs aren't supported right now), the total file count will increment to help indicate that progress is being made.
Optimization: don't calculate "raw" file CRCs when not testing output files
Calculating the checksums of large files (e.g. BIN/CUEs, ISOs, CHDs, etc.) can take a really long time. When copying or moving only (and not extracting or zipping), and not testing them (i.e. just igir copy or igir move), igir will no longer bother calculating the expected checksum of these files.
Fix: fatal error with invalid progress bar size
@netwaretcs reported a bug that I see infrequently during development and was hoping was limited to local change instability. Sometimes igir would full crash when the "in progress" section of the progress bar had a negative number, a race condition I'm still trying to pin down. The crash should be prevented, at least.
Fix: --dir-letter-limit with multi-ROM games
The --dir-letter-limit option added in v1.8.0 was causing multi-ROM games to get sorted into odd folders, sometimes even outside of the --dir-letter folder. This has been fixed.
Fix: self-closing tags in MAME DATs
@kbullett found a bug with older MAME DATs that make use of XML self-closing tags causing crashes in igir. This should be fixed, but please continue to report any issues you see with non-DTD-compliant DATs!
Fix: deletion of moved archives of games with duplicate ROMs
@docbobo reported a bug where igir would not delete single-game archives of games that contain duplicate ROMs (e.g. duplicate BIN/CUE tracks). This should be fixed.

Sponsors
- @dcramer thank you for being the first project sponsor! It means a lot, and your code contributions already have been awesome.
igir, and other open-source projects like it, are a labor of love. They wouldn't be nearly as meaningful without the community supporting them. Constructive feedback and general positivity will always be welcome. Be kind to others, and be kind to yourselves.
