panorama.md still had a frame that did not fit end the job, and FR-MRG-5
still said the merge stops; since 621a6b83 the frame is named on its
row and unticked, and the rest are solved again from the pairs already
matched. §15 records the split of align into match_pairs and solve and
why re-aligning a subset from scratch moved every RANSAC seed, and the
rule e98b1def gave a blown sample, which §8's "nothing about being a
RAW is lost" now mentions. The manual says where the boxes are and
what an unplaceable frame does to Merge.
D19 retired the per-body base curve, moved the matrix ahead of the
edits and the film into the view transform's place, but a dozen doc
comments still listed the curve among what a pixel passes through, or
said the film skipped it. The detail stage's module doc still drew the
matrix after the edits and the last detail pass encoding, which the
view pass took over. The film crate's README gave the base curves as
its reason for being data, and the ops README's list of hand-written
nodes had neither the view transform nor three of the five kernels.
FR-MRG-2 gave the base curve as why the merge cuts below the profile;
the view transform is why now. The decision table still said colour
defaults were a per-body curve, and FR-DEV-3j said only the default
view transform skips a JPEG, where the node skips one whatever its
sliders say. frame-budget.md records the view pass as unmeasured.
The base curve was a five-point spline on the unit square, flat past its
last point: every value above 1.0 left it as the same number, per
channel. Exposure and highlight recovery put values up there, and the
curve threw them away, then handed the result on as though it were
still scene-linear. The six per-body curves were also, by their own
file's account, hand-tuned shapes rather than measurements, and not
enough is known about where they came from to keep them (D19).
In their place, one view transform for every body (FR-DEV-3j): a
log-logistic sigmoid per channel, with the middle channel put back
between the other two so a hue survives the shoulder. Its two free
constants are solved from two conditions rather than set: scene grey
0.13, where the retired default curve put it, lands on display 0.18,
and the scene white four stops above grey lands on 1.0. So a highlight
a stop past sensor saturation still rolls into white, and the midtones
stay within 0.26 EV of the retired default between scene 0.03 and 1.0.
`dr_pipeline::view` holds the CPU reference and the WGSL, and the tests
there are FR-DEV-3j's acceptance criteria.
It is still fixed and still in the fused pass's tail, so a detail stage
still sees rendered values; the next commits make it an operation and
move it after the detail stage. It is skipped for a JPEG, as the base
curve was, and absent from the camera-space tap.
The base curve's database, its lookup and its twelve uniform slots go.
`RawImage` and `DemosaicedImage` lose the field, and the GPU test that
proved a curve reached the shader is replaced by one that renders the
view transform against the CPU reference and shows two highlights above
1.0 still render apart. The JPEG-and-sensor test now asserts the two
differ by exactly the view transform, where before an identity fixture
curve had made them match.
docs/ had 26 developer documents flat beside the manual, and the two
audiences are very differently sized: most readers want the manual and
the gesture reference, a few want the register, the designs and the
measurements. The manual and gestures.md stay at the top; everything for
someone changing the code moves to docs/dev/, and the two documents that
name their own successors — the v0.1 milestone and the UI-refinement plan
— go to docs/dev/archive/ rather than being deleted, since both are still
cited. docs/README.md is the index, users first.
Every reference follows: code comments, Cargo manifests, the workflows,
the pre-commit hook, the bench and traceability tools (which locate the
repo root by docs/dev/requirements.md now), packaging, the Docker READMEs,
CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and the README. The matrix links one level
deeper and is regenerated. Links out of the moved documents into the tree
gain a level; a link checker over every Markdown file finds none broken.
