Jimmy Kiselak 389a2a963e fix a few bugs and add some assertions
ncctrietests.cpp:
add test to make sure emptying the ncc trie cache results in a
default hash ("00...01")
ncctrie.cpp:
fix the ncc trie cache so that emptying it causes the root hash
to be computed as the default hash ("00...01")
fix two bugs in reading the ncc trie from disk:
all insertions were returning immediately due to parenthesis
misplacement, and the loop reading nodes from disk wasn't
terminating due to a lack of an incrementing operation
miner.cpp
fix a bug in the miner where input coins in the cache were being
spent before their txouts could be checked for NCC commands
main.cpp
add some assertions when disconnecting blocks from the active
chain, ensuring the merkle root of the ncc trie after undoing the
block is equal to the hashNCCTrie in the previous block
fix an erroneous assertion in ConnectBlock to assert the correct
expected value
change some log statements to use __func__
init.cpp
change the order of some init operations so the NCC trie is
restored from disk before the DB is verified

Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree

Build Status

https://www.bitcoin.org

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an experimental new digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://www.bitcoin.org/en/download.

License

Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development process

Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think their feature or bug fix is ready.

If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Bitcoin development team members simply pulls it.

If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on the mailing list.

The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing. Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't match the project's coding conventions (see doc/developer-notes.md) or are controversial.

The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check

Every pull request is built for both Windows and Linux on a dedicated server, and unit and sanity tests are automatically run. The binaries produced may be used for manual QA testing — a link to them will appear in a comment on the pull request posted by BitcoinPullTester. See https://github.com/TheBlueMatt/test-scripts for the build/test scripts.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Large changes should have a test plan, and should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. See https://github.com/bitcoin/QA/ for how to create a test plan.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.

Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
