The value means three different things at once. It is the unit of writer
parallelism - whole files go round-robin to the writers,
(image_number / images_per_file) % socket.size() in ZMQStream2Pusher::SendImage
and TCPStreamPusher - it multiplies writer memory linearly, since every data-file
plugin reserves per file, and it decides whether a legacy master is readable at
all, because dxtbx follows only the first data file of one.
That last point is what makes a flat default wrong. Measured with DIALS on a
2500-image rotation sweep written as legacy: split into five files it reports
2500 images and then raises IndexError beyond image 499, so it half-works
silently; in one file all 2500 read. AutoPROC does not read VDS, so legacy has to
stay the default, which leaves the file count as the only lever.
So make it optional and resolve it from the acquisition. A rotation sweep of at
most 20000 images goes into one data file - rotation datasets are small enough,
and one writer keeps up with them. A grid scan splits on whole fast-axis rows, so
a file is a meaningful piece of the grid. Stills and serial keep 1000, where the
image count far exceeds it and the parallelism and the bounded writer memory are
what matter. An explicit value is always taken literally.
GetImagesPerFile is the single place this is resolved, and it must always return
a fixed non-zero number, because everything downstream - receiver, pusher, puller,
writer - requires one. That was already true of the old 0 = "one file" spelling;
0 is now gone from the API and omitting the field says the same thing better.

This is an UNSTABLE release. It includes many experimental features, as well as many AI generated fixes. We recommend using rc.152 for production use.
* Analysis: The azimuthal-integration solid-angle correction now follows the incidence angle to the detector normal (`cos^3` of that angle) instead of `cos^3(2*theta)`, so it is correct for a tilted detector and matches PyFAI `solidAngleArray` and MAX IV azint (unchanged for an untilted detector). Crystal geometry refinement (`XtalOptimizer`) no longer silently ignores an imported PONI `rot3` (rotation about the beam): it is applied as a fixed rotation in the residual so refinement stays consistent with the rest of the pipeline. Polarization and azimuthal binning already honoured `rot3` through the full PONI rotation.
* jfjoch_viewer: Open datasets on the WSL2/UNC filesystem (paths starting `\\`); write processing outputs next to the input file, with a Browse button and independent `_process.h5` / merged `.mtz`/`.cif` toggles; and show the determined space group in the merge-statistics window.
* rugnux: Accept an absolute `-o` output prefix in offline processing.
* Packaging: The self-contained Linux viewer `.tgz` now bundles cuFFT, so it runs without a system CUDA toolkit (`.deb`/`.rpm` are unchanged, distro-managed).
* Docs: Bring the analysis references up to date with the code. `docs/CPU_DATA_ANALYSIS.md` now reflects the unified profile-fit Bragg integration engine, multi-lattice indexing, azimuthal phi binning, the radial parallax/bandwidth profile with sub-pixel centring, the rot3d capture-fraction handling and the automatic CC1/2 resolution cutoff, and drops the descriptions of features that were never implemented (French-Wilson amplitudes, the still excitation-error partiality model); `docs/RUGNUX.md` documents the new `--resolution-cutoff`/`--resolution-cc-target`/`--resolution-shells`, `--min-captured-fraction`, `--mosaicity`, `--reference-column`, the azimuthal correction toggles and the geometry-override options, and corrects the `-N` default. The outdated in-source design notes (ICE_RING_DETECTION, BRAGG_INTEGRATION_ENGINE, NEXTGEN_INTEGRATOR) are removed.Reviewed-on: #68

This is an UNSTABLE release. It includes many experimental features, as well as many AI generated fixes. We recommend using rc.152 for production use.
* jfjoch_process: Major rotation (rot3d) data processing overhaul - robust profile-fit integration, Cauchy-loss scaling with optional absorption surface, de-novo indexing and space-group/centering determination fixes, and merging statistics + ISa in the mmCIF output.
* jfjoch_process: Add EXPERIMENTAL ice-ring detection (--detect-ice-rings) that excludes ice reflections from scaling.
* Compression: Add BSHUF_ZSTD_RLE_HUFF, make compression size-aware (drop frames that don't fit rather than aborting), and add the jfjoch_recompress tool.
* jfjoch_viewer: Report "Multiple lattices detected" and grey out "Analyze dataset" on a live connection.
* jfjoch_broker: Write smargon chi/phi goniometer positions to NXmx; read sensor thickness/material from HDF5 metadata.
* CI: Build Windows (CUDA and non-CUDA) installers.Reviewed-on: #66
