I’ve made a full archive of Yuzu

Hi I’ve made a full archive of Yuzu. That would include all their Github issues, the git repo on its last version, the latest available release binaries from the Github page, and all of their progress reports from the Yuzu website. The progress reports are good for understanding the general work and weaving a narrative in your mind about the trajectory of the Yuzu project, and the Github issues can outline resolved issues and outstanding ones.

I do not include any illicit materials in my archive. If you seek keys, roms, firmware, etc, you won’t find it here.

While I’m happy to share this torrent for basically as long as possible, I do not have port forwarding available. So if anyone wishes to have these materials and possibly has a seedbox, please assist! Also this is like the first time I’ve ever created a torrent, but I’m pretty sure I did it right.

P.S. I am completely unrelated to Yuzu team members. I’m just a saddened user like everyone else.

    I have my own backup of the git repo and I downloaded this to compare and make sure it’s not some modified (potentially malicious) copy. The most recent commit on my copy of master was dc94882c9062ab88d3d5de35dcb8731111baaea2 (4 commits behind OP’s copy). I can verify:

    • that the history up to that commit is identical in both copies
    • after that commit, OP’s copy only has changes to translation files which are functionally insignificant

    So this does look to be a legitimate copy of the source code as it appeared on github!

    Clarifications:

    • This was just a random check, I do not have any reason to be suspicious of OP personally
    • I did not check branches other than master (yet?)
    • I did not (and cannot) check the validity of anything beyond the git repo
    • You don’t have a reason to trust me more than you trust OP… It would be nice if more people independently checked and verified against their own copies.

    I will be seeding this for the foreseeable future.

      Thanks for doing that! I should write a script to do it, but I’m feeling down this week. So I won’t do it sorry :(

      I have a copy that I got from https://github.com/yuzu-mirror/yuzu. Looking at its master branch of the main repo, it has dc94882c9062ab88d3d5de35dcb8731111baaea2, followed by 4 commits related to translation (likely the same as OPs) followed by a couple of commits that only change github urls from yuzu-emu to yuzu-mirror.

    Wow guys the download speed was 70MB/s I have never seen a torrent that well seeded in my life. My server will now join the effort

      You should join some private trackers then. I am consistently getting 100+MB/s on many torrents from such trackers. That is of course on gigabit fibre and proper port forwarding configured.

    Did someone think about backing up the commit history? I believe it can be useful for future devs.

      The source code in this torrent is a clone of the git repo. I don’t know if there are missing branches but it should have the entirety of the master branch history at least.
