3121d76 doc: Update release notes for share/rpcauth/rpcauth.py rename (Henrik Jonsson)
3fdb297 Rename rpcuser.py to rpcauth.py (Henrik Jonsson)
Pull request description:
This script creates `rpcauth` entries for bitcoin.conf, not the deprecated `rpcuser` entry, so this changes the name of the script to match.
As discussed in #11830.

Instead of maintaining not-easily-tested instructions for building BerkeleyDB
in doc/build-unix.md, package the installation as a script in contrib/. This
allows shared usage from a number of contexts, e.g. Docker.
Thanks to @jonasschnelli, @laanwj for feedback.

487aff421 Check subtree consistency in Travis (Pieter Wuille)
e1d0cc23a Improve git-subtree-check.sh (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Apparently many of our subtrees get modified by PRs in this repository, without getting noticed.
To improve upon this:
* Make git-subtree-check.sh capable of doing a weaker consistency check (that doesn't need access to external repositories), but which should be sufficient to detect unintended changes. It can be fooled by a fake subtree merge commit, but that would hopefully be obvious to reviewers.
* Make Travis invoke this subtree check for each of our subtrees.
Note that Travis is currently expected to fail on this PR, as 2 out of 4 subtrees (`src/secp156k1` and `src/univalue` have been modified directly in master).

We have several pieces of information about subtrees:
1) What their current directory contents is
2) What their directory contents was at the time of the last subtree merge
3) What the directory contents of the upstream project is in the commit referred to by the subtree merge.
Normally, all 3 should be identical. git-subtree-check.sh so far only compared (1) with (3) however.
Fix this by comparing all three, and give some more useful diff output in the case of mismatch.
The added benefit is that (1) and (2) can be compared without needing to see the upstream repository.

ab5bba778 Fix launchctl not being able to stop bitcoind (Alejandro Avilés)
Pull request description:
`bitcoind` should not be launched as daemon from the Launch Agent. Otherwise, the process cannot be stopped from `launchctl stop`/`launchctl unload`.
To reproduce the issue:
```console
$ launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.bitcoin.bitcoind.plist
$ pgrep -fla bitcoin
60225 /usr/local/opt/bitcoin/bin/bitcoind
$ launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.bitcoin.bitcoind.plist
```
Wait a few seconds and then run `pgrep` again:
```console
$ pgrep -fla bitcoin
60225 /usr/local/opt/bitcoin/bin/bitcoind
```
The node is still running. This happens because Launch Agent is not supposed to run programs as daemons, since the agent makes sure they run in the background. Running them as daemons makes the Launch Agent lose control of the process and, so, it cannot be stopped.

This adds a new CHECK_DOC check that looks for newly introduced trailing
whitespace. Existing trailing whitespace (of which there is plenty!)
will not trigger an error.
This is written in a generic way so that new lint-*.sh scripts can be
added to contrib/devtools/, as I'd like to contribute additional lint
checks in the future.
77aa9e59e test: Check RPC argument mapping (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Parse the dispatch tables from the server implementation files, and the conversion table from the client (see #10751).
Perform the following consistency checks:
- Arguments defined in conversion table, must be present in dispatch table. If not, it was probably forgotten to add them to the dispatch table, and they will not work.
- Arguments defined in conversion table must have the same names as in the dispatch table. If not, they will not work.
- All aliases for an argument must either be present in the conversion table, or not. Anything in between means an oversight and some aliases won't work.
Any of these results in an error.
It also performs a consistency check to see if the same named argument is sometimes converted, and sometimes not. E.g. one RPC call might have a 'verbose' argument that is converted,
another RPC call might have one that is not converted. This is not necessarily wrong, but points at a possible error (as well as makes the API harder to memorize) - so it is emitted as a warning (could upgrade this to error).
This test is added to travis and run when `CHECK_DOC`. Currently fails with the following output:
```
* Checking consistency between dispatch tables and vRPCConvertParams
ERROR: createrawtransaction argument 3 (named optintorbf in vRPCConvertParams) is not defined in dispatch table

Release version strings were broken in Gitian by 7522. This is a minimal fix
suitable for 0.15.
After this, we should fix up version handling for good so that gitian packages
the correct string in the release tarball, so that git is not required to get
the tag name.

475c08c Add PR description to merge commit in github-merge.py (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
There is often some context given in PR descriptions that is missing from commits, and it may be worthwhile to retain that information in our history in git. This PR adds that information to the merge commit when created through `github-merge.py`.
We should also encourage people to provide as much information as possible in the PR commits themselves, but I believe that is an orthogonal issue. Individual commits don't need to have a description of the overall goal of a PR.

Remove leveldb baseline coverage gathering.
Added filter rules to remove all of the subtress (leveldb, secp256k1, ctaes, univalue) and
benchmarking from the coverage report. These items are unnecessary as we do not test for any
of the subtrees and benchmark coverage is unneeded.
Instead of using lcov -r (which is extremely slow), first use a python script to perform bulk cleanup of the /usr/include/* coverage. Then use lcov -a to remove the duplicate entries. This has the same effect of lcov -r but runs significantly faster
Downloading all the binaries of all platforms can take quite long,
especially for slow connections, which may deter people from using
this script and, therefore, to disregard security altogether.
This change introduces the new possibility of specifying the
platform along with the version number, so that only the binaries
that contain the platform name are downloaded.
Add comment how further options can be added or existing ones
modified. Use /run/${RuntimeDirectory} for PID file.
Remove TimeoutStopSec, TimeoutStartSec, StartLimitInterval,
StartLimitBurst directives as those should be set indivdually.
Remove Group to user the bitcoin user's default group.

not is transaction management "carried out collectively by the

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 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

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
