Create a directory `bitcoin` and move into it the following as is with
no code changes:
- src
- Cargo.toml
- contrib
- test_data
- examples
Then do:
- Add a workspace to the repository root directory.
- Add the newly created `bitcoin` crate to the workspace.
- Exclude `fuzz` and `embedded` crates from the workspace.
- Add a contrib/test.sh script that runs contrib/test.sh in each
sub-crate
- Fix the bitcoin/contrib/test.sh script
Add a `LockTime` type to hold the nLockTime `u32` value. Use it in
`Transaction` for `lock_time` instead of a `u32`. Make it public so this
new type can be used by rust-miniscript and other downstream projects.
Add a `PackedLockTime` type that wraps a raw `u32` and derives `Ord`,
this type is for wrapping a consensus lock time value for nesting in
types that would like to derive `Ord`.
When `rust-bitcoin` was started in 2014 the SPDX license list and short
identifiers where not a thing. Now that we have short identifiers and
they are gaining popularity in other projects we can consider using
them.
- Add links to the SPDX website in the readme
- Shorten the author section to a single line
- Remove all the licence information in each file and replace it with an
SPDX ID (see https://spdx.dev/ids/#how)
Of note:
- If the author of a file is explicitly listed, maintain this
information
- If the 'author' is listed as the generic 'Rust Bitcoin developers'
just remove the attribution, this is implicit. This does loose the date
info but that can be seen at any time from the git index using
`git log --follow --format=%ad --date default <FILE> | tail -1`
Witness struct is in place of the Vec<Vec<u8>> we have before this commit.
from_vec() and to_vec() methods are provided to switch between this type and Vec<Vec<u8>>
Moreover, implementation of Default, Iterator and others allows to have similar behaviour but
using a single Vec prevent many allocations during deserialization which in turns results in
better performance, even 20% better perfomance on recent block.
last() and second_to_last() allows to access respective element without going through costly Vec
transformation
Docs can always do with a bit of love.
Clean up the module level (`//!`) rustdocs for all public modules.
I claim uniform is better than any specific method/style. I tried to fit
in with what ever was either most sane of most prevalent, therefore
attaining uniformity without unnecessary code churn (one exception being
the changes to headings described below).
Notes:
* Headings - use heading as a regular sentence for all modules e.g.,
```
//! Bitcoin network messages.
```
as opposed to
```
//! # Bitcoin Network Messages
```
It was not clear which style to use so I picked a 'random' mature
project and copied their style.
* Added 'This module' in _most_ places as the start of the module
description, however I was not religious about this one.
* Fixed line length if necessary since most of our code seems to follow
short (80 char) line lengths for comments anyways.
* Added periods and fixed obvious (and sometimes not so obvious)
grammatically errors.
* Added a trailing `//!` to every block since this was almost universal
already. I don't really like this one but I'm guessing it is Andrew's
preferred style since its on the copyright notices as well.
This code was unmaintained, is unlikely to work on the majority of systems
(since it holds the whole utxoset in RAM, and not in a terribly efficient
manner), and has a dependency on `eventual` which has been broken for a
long time.
The library no longer compiles on nightly because of this, and without any
known usecases for `UtxoSet`, nor good ability to test it, I'm simply
removing the code.
I recommend anyone who cares about this extracts the code from the previous
commit and creates a new crate. It should be more featureful anyway, e.g.
support a backing store.
