Make the instdate for lrelease etc deterministic. This should have been
part of 0.9.2. Luckily this doesn't affect the end product, it is just
a bit annoying.

Just in case - there is no vulnerability that affects ecdsa signing or
verification.
The MITM attack vulnerability (CVE-2014-0224) may have some effect on
our usage of SSL/TLS.
As long as payment requests are signed (which is the common case), usage
of the payment protocol should also not be affected.
The TLS usage in RPC may be at risk for MITM attacks. If you have
`-rpcssl` enabled, be sure to update OpenSSL as soon as possible.

New RPC methods: return an estimate of the fee (or priority) a
transaction needs to be likely to confirm in a given number of
blocks.
Mike Hearn created the first version of this method for estimating fees.
It works as follows:
For transactions that took 1 to N (I picked N=25) blocks to confirm,
keep N buckets with at most 100 entries in each recording the
fees-per-kilobyte paid by those transactions.
(separate buckets are kept for transactions that confirmed because
they are high-priority)
The buckets are filled as blocks are found, and are saved/restored
in a new fee_estiamtes.dat file in the data directory.
A few variations on Mike's initial scheme:
To estimate the fee needed for a transaction to confirm in X buckets,
all of the samples in all of the buckets are used and a median of
all of the data is used to make the estimate. For example, imagine
25 buckets each containing the full 100 entries. Those 2,500 samples
are sorted, and the estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the very
next block is the 50'th-highest-fee-entry in that sorted list; the
estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the next two blocks is the
150'th-highest-fee-entry, etc.
That algorithm has the nice property that estimates of how much fee
you need to pay to get confirmed in block N will always be greater
than or equal to the estimate for block N+1. It would clearly be wrong
to say "pay 11 uBTC and you'll get confirmed in 3 blocks, but pay
12 uBTC and it will take LONGER".
A single block will not contribute more than 10 entries to any one
bucket, so a single miner and a large block cannot overwhelm
the estimates.

1411a51 doc: Update hash in release process for new windows deps intermediate (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
386e732 gitian: make linux qt intermediate deterministic (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
I added a link to my guide about using docker containers + LXC (I am planning to maintain this at work
for future bitcoin versions), then I mentioned other virtualization options (KVM, LXC).
This commit includes a fix issue for documentation issue #4269 that consists in telling users to
checkout correct bitcoin version before using the gitian descriptors (otherwise all hell can break loose).
Also, I replaced URL for Debian 7.4 ISO with a correct one and added link to official Debian ISO sources.
A qt installation date snuck into the host utils (lrelease etc)
This doesn't affect the end product, so no dependency version bump.
It also doesn't explain why gavin's and mine build is different
This fixes the display on Retina Macbooks. It also moves us away from depending
on the ancient XCode3 sdk.

There is no need to use any specific version of boost on Linux/Unix.
Even 1.37 should still work.
Also the mention of boost-dev doesn't belong after adding oldstable.
Remove it. libboost-all-dev is already mentioned earlier.

3ab1664 gitian: build against Qt 4.6 (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
The year is 2014. All supported operating systems have IPv6 support,
most certainly at build time (this doesn't mean that IPv6 is configured,
of course).
If noone is exercising the functionality to disable it, that means it
doesn't get tested, and IMO it's better to get rid of it.
(it's also not used consistently in RPC/boost and Net code...)
Run this script from the root of the repository to update all translations from transifex.
It will do the following automatically:
- create a transifex configuration file
- fetch all translations
- post-process them into valid and committable format
This is a project-wide configuration file and should be the same for
everyone.
Also remove mention of creating it yourself from the translation process.
- People were having problems with the .so when installing in
alternative locations.
Like gitian, build a static library with -fPIC that can
be embedded into the executables.
- Add some missing steps
- Add reminder that BerkeleyDB is only needed when wallet support is
enabled
Should make it possible to run the resulting GUI executable on
Linux distributions that use Qt 4.6, such as Debian Wheezy and Tails.
Builds a mini-SDK for building against Qt 4.6. This includes the headers
as well as host utilities such as `lrelease`, `qrc` and `moc`.
This speeds up the gitian build a bit - libqt4-dev pulled in a lot of packages,
and is no longer needed as this provides a replacement of our own.
Note: This does not replace the Qt build with at static library. After this
commit we still build dynamically against the system Qt library. The only
difference is that compatibility with an older version is maintained. This
loses minor GUI functionality (such as setPlaceholderText) but still
allows integration into the window management of the host OS, unlike
when statically linking.
The patch to make it possible to configure the LXC IPs has been merged
upstream. This means that it is no longer needed to patch gitian.
Remove that workaround.
Drawback: The version string is no longer a valid git identifier.
For this reason the 'g' short hash prefix has been removed.
Exception: When building directly from a tag this behaves exactly like the previous behavior.
This allows formatting release versions with precision i.e. v0.9.2
This also allows arbitrary topicbranch names i.e. v0.9.1-glibc-compat

Bumps deps-linux, deps-win dependency versions as well.
qt-win does not need to be bumped, as although it depends on deps-win,
Qt doesn't use miniupnp. I verified this by rebuilding the dependency
and checking the the output is the same. Not having to rebuild Qt is a
good thing as it is huge.
Now that 0.9 is branched off, the new release notes for 0.10 or 0.11 or
1.0 should be added here.
Edits to preliminary 0.9.0 release notes should be made in the 0.9.0 branch.
The FTP server what we get libpng from only keeps the latest version in its main folder. Older versions are in the "history" folder. Apparently version 1.6.9 has been released, so 1.6.8 has moved to the history folder.

Instead of using the boost provided by Ubuntu 12.04, build our own
dependency like we do for Windows.
This allows using a much newer version (1.55 versus 1.46) as well as
building with `-fPIC` so that `-pie` can be used in the x86-64 build.

Use a series of .png frames for the spinner instead of a .mng.
`mng` is an obscure image format and is not built by default into Qt5.
This appears to improve the crispness of the spinner as well.
Does not noticably increase the size (still ~27k) and the code
is not more complicated either.
- remove unused and unmentioned file notsynced.png (we use an animation
for this)
- add missing coincontroldialog.ui to bitcoin-qt.pro
- also unify formating in assets-attribution.md
Update current translations, and add new languages:
- es_MX: Spanish (Mexico)
- pam: Kapampangan
Also update translation process for autoconf-based build system.
Only messages for now, executable names and other file names
can be changed later if necessary and safe.
Do not do an all-sweeping change. Some occurences of Bitcoin-Qt need to
be kept:
- Applicationname: this is used to determine the registry entry names,
we don't want to lose settings over a silly name change.
- Where it refers to the executable name instead of the product name.
The following mining-related RPC calls don't use the wallet:

- getblocktemplate
- submitblock

I was merging change this every time before generation of
the doxygen developer docs (https://dev.visucore.com/bitcoin/doxygen/)
but there's no reason why it can't just be merged upstream.
Selecting the button for a pages was going through bitcoingui->walletframe->walletview->bitcoingui.
Because of this, the actions for the pages had to be exposed on the BitcoinGUI object.
Seems like there are a lot of advertised testnet HS nodes that
don't actually work. Lack of the testnet port on the example
HS config might be one reason.
This commit adds a step, which is to git checkout the version to be
built. This ensures that the gitian-descriptors for said version will be
the correct ones. In addition, it updates the links for several
dependencies, where the previously existing links were dead.
Workaround 1.54.0 build bug, upstream #9156
Workaround 1.51.0+ human bug, upstream #7262
This commit also demonstrates a method to verify the integrity of inputs.
I've seen users confused multiple times thinking they
should be using -tor to set their tor proxy and then
finding in horror that they were still connecting to
the IPv4 internet.
Even Jeff guesses wrong about what the knob does, so
I think we should rename it. This leaves the old
knob working, we can pull it out completely in a
later release.
Add support for a Payment Protocol to Bitcoin-Qt.
Payment messages are protocol-buffer encoded and communicated over
http(s), so this adds a dependency on the Google protocol buffer
library, and requires Qt with OpenSSL support.
This commit squashes all the changes in the Qt5 branch
relative to master.
Backward compatibility with Qt4 is retained.

why:
- the current splash-screen has no referring to official images on - https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Promotional_graphics
- the current splash screen only exists in a low res jpg
- current splash screen looks dark and "hackish"
- new splash screen should generate positive, "trust-emotions".
- new splash screen gives the user infos about the running client.
- new splash screen can handle long messages (in a lot of - languages the text is cropped in current release)
- new size (x2) 400x312
- contains textual information about the client
- textinfos are dynamicly written to the pixmap
when -testnet is switch on, the splashscreen will show the bitcoin logo in testnet-color (as well as a text [testnet])
example: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/7383846/new_bitcoin_splash.png
Due a bug in QT (https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-21267), the mac binary of the last release contains bulk meta informations.
The url-handler (bitcoin://) is also not working in current release
Should be fixed with this commit.

Set CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to remove pre-release warning
Updated copyright in COPYING and doc/READMEs to 2013
Updated doc/release-notes.txt
Use 'osascript' to run AppleScript, instead of using (broken-in-10.8)
python appscript package.
And added support for code-signing the .app bundle, to make OSX's
GateKeeper happy.
Implements #1948
- Add macro `CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE` to clientversion.h
- When running a prerelease (the above macro is `false`):
- In UI, show an orange warning bar at the top. This will be used for other
warnings (and alerts) as well, instead of the status bar.
- For `bitcoind`, show the warning in the "errors" field in `getinfo`
response.
This reverts commit 199d88cf90, reversing
changes made to 65bc1573e7.
License is worse instead of better. Will only accept public domain and
MIT-licensed icons from now on.
- add version information to bitcoin-qt.rc, which is displayed on Windows, when looking in the executable properties and selecting "Details"
- introduce a new clientversion.h (used in bitcoin-qt.rc to generate
version information), which takes only the version defines from
version.h and is included in it (to allow usage with the windres rc-file
compiler)
- move #define STRINGIFY(s) #s into clientversion.h as that is used in
bitcoin-qt.rc and rename to DO_STRINGIZE(X)
- add #define STRINGIZE(X) DO_STRINGIZE(X), which is needed to convert the
version defines into a version string in the rc-file
- this ensures we only need to update 1 file and have bitcoin-qt.exe
version information
- for RC-file documentation see:

This will make bitcoin relay valid routable IPv6 addresses, and when
