Some minor github-merge improvements I've made over time:
User interface:
- Print merge details again before signing off, to refresh your memory -
usually I'll have done lots of different things in the shell so this
will have scrolled out a long time ago.
- Require a valid answer on the prompts. One of the requested answers
must be typed, if not, the prompt will re-ask. This prevents
accidentally rejecting.
Efficiency:
- Condense "accept merge" and "sign off" prompts. There's no reason to
have this as two separate prompts, both are just opportunities to skip
out on the merge, no action is performed in between.
Merging:
- Strip spaces from github title. This avoids redundant spaces
surrounding it from getting into the commit message.

This option is becoming more popular recently, and I propose an example to be shown in the bitcoin.conf.

Adds a datadir configuration option to the linearize scripts to allow the script to use the RPC cookie instead of requiring the user to set a rpcuser and rpcpassword for the rpc server.
This changes tree_sha512sum() to requests the objects for hashing from
git instead of from the working tree.
The change should make the process more deterministic (it hashes what
will be pushed) and hopefully avoids the frequent miscomputed SHA512's
that happen now.

This removes the option from the wallet to not pay a fee on "small"
transactions which spend "old" inputs.
This code is no longer worth keeping around, as almost all miners
prefer not to include transactions which pay no fee at all.

7179e7c qt: Periodic translations update (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
5e903a5 devtools: Handle Qt formatting characters edge-case in update-translations.py (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
If both numeric format specifiers and "others" are used, assume we're
dealing with a Qt-formatted message. In the case of Qt formatting (see
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstring.html#arg) only numeric formats are
replaced at all. This means "(percentage: %1%)" is valid (which was
introduced in #9461), without needing any kind of escaping that would be
necessary for strprintf. Without this, this function would wrongly
detect '%)' as a printf format specifier.
ba94426 Test that pushes to bitcoin/bitcoin are signed per verify-commits (Matt Corallo)
3e900ac Require merge commits merge branches on top of other merge commits (Matt Corallo)
Specifically, require that the left branch (first restult of git
show -s --format=format:%P) is a signed merge commit, instead of
allowing either. This is fine for now, but might need to be relaxed
in the future.
Also fixes an out-of-file-descriptors issue by holding too many
open FDs writing to /dev/null
- The last-timestamp-encountered variable wasn’t being used properly. Rewrite code to properly allow for new blockchain files to be written when split by month.
- Properly set a blockchain file’s access and modify times.
- Add a “debug output” option to quiet certain output that might not always be desirable.
- Update the README.
Also change the mac filename to match
The procedure remains the same, but now there's a nifty script to automate
the signing process.
Future steps:
- Build osslsigncode in the gitian-win descriptor so that the signer itself is
deterministic.
- Verify in the gitian-win-signer descriptor that the expected cert chain was
used.
To ensure that this is the correct chain, it is pulled from a previous release
binary.
Procedure:
$ osslsigncode extract-signature -pem -in bitcoin-0.13.2-win32-setup.exe \
-out bitcoin-0.13.2-win32-setup.exe.pem
$ openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -in bitcoin-0.13.2-win32-setup.exe.pem \
-out win-codesign.cert
Hand-edit to remove comments, as well as the timestamp cert.
Three categories of modifications:
1)
1 instance of 'The Bitcoin Core developers \n',
1 instance of 'the Bitcoin Core developers\n',
3 instances of 'Bitcoin Core Developers\n', and
12 instances of 'The Bitcoin developers\n'
are made uniform with the 443 instances of 'The Bitcoin Core developers\n'
2)
3 instances of 'BitPay, Inc\.\n' are made uniform with the other 6
instances of 'BitPay Inc\.\n'
3)
4 instances where there was no '(c)' between the 'Copyright' and the year
where it deviates from the style of the local directory.
The consistency is helpful for gauging Gitian build progress. Right now it's necessary to remember which platform builds in which order, which can be confusing if you're attempting to get a quick idea of how far along your builds are.

Three subcommands to this script:
1) ./copyright_header.py report
Examines git-tracked files with extensions that match:
INCLUDE = ['*.h', '*.cpp', '*.cc', '*.c', '*.py']
Helps to:
-> Identify source files without copyright
-> Identify source files added with something other than "The Bitcoin Core
developers" holder so we can be sure it is appropriate
-> Identify unintentional typos in the copyright line
2) ./copyright_header.py update
Replaces fix-copyright-headers.py. It does file editing in native python
rather than subprocessing out to perl as was the case with
fix-copyright-headers.py. It also shares code with the 'report' functions.
3) ./copyright_header.py insert
Inserts a copyright header into a source file with the proper format and
dates.

I've written a script that automates the setup and building of binaries with gitian. All of the commands are pulled from various documentation on gitian building.
C_INCLUDE_PATH and CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH work globally as though -isystem was used
for each invocation.
Since that changes the build results, force a rebuild of x86 depends by adding
the value to $HOST_ID_SALT.
* separate completion for bitcoind and bitcoin-cli

- create a script to handle split debug. This will also eventually need to check
targets, and use dsymutil for osx.
- update config.guess/config.sub for bdb for aarch64.
- temporarily disable symbol checks for arm/aarch64
- quit renaming to linux32/linux64 and use the host directly
This also adds a hack to work around an Ubuntu bug in the gcc-multilib package:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-defaults-armhf-cross/+bug/1347820
The problem is that gcc-multilib conflicts with the aarch toolchain.
gcc-multilib installs a symlink that points
/usr/include/asm -> /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/asm.
Without this link, gcc -m32 can't find asm/errno.h (and others), since
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu isn't in its default include path. But
/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu is (though it doesn't exist on disk).
So work around the problem by linking
/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/asm -> /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/asm.
The symlink fix is actually quite reasonable, but echoing the password into
sudo is nasty, and should probably be addressed in gitian itself. It makes more
sense to enable passwordless sudo for the build user by default.
