e4d366788bc2e8dce8e6ca572fce08d913d15d6b build: Drop needless EXTRA_DIST content (Hennadii Stepanov) 6c4da59f5b5b3c40526d38965d4ffa7fd59f2ebc build: Drop SOURCEDIST reordering (Hennadii Stepanov) 5e6b8b391243016cb06e9e107c2e6a13a744b31e build: Use git archive as source tarball (Hennadii Stepanov) Pull request description: This PR: - is an alternative to #17104 - closes #16734 - closes #6753 The idea is clear described by some developers: - [MarcoFalke](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17097#issuecomment-540691850): > This whole concept of explicitly listing each and every file manually (or with a fragile wildcard) is an obvious sisyphean task. I'd say all we need to do is run git archive and be done with it forever, see #16734, #6753, #11530 ... - [laanwj](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17097#issuecomment-540706025): > I agree, I've never been a fan of it. I don't think we have any files in the git repository we don't want to ship in the source tarball. --- The suggested changes have a downside which is pointed by [**luke-jr**](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17104#issuecomment-540828045): > ... but the distfile needs to include autogen-generated files. This means that a user is not able to run `./configure && make` right away. One must run `./autogen.sh` at first. Here are opinions about mandatory use of `./autogen.sh`: - [ryanofsky](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16734#issuecomment-534139356): > It's probably ok to require autogen. I think historically configure scripts were supposed to work on obscure unix systems that would just have a generic shell + make tool + c compiler, and not necessarily need gnu packages like m4 which are needed for autogen. - [laanwj](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16734#issuecomment-540729483): > I also think it's fine to require autogen. What is one dependency more, if you're building from source. --- ~Also this PR provides Windows users with ZIP archives of the sources. Additionally the commit ID is stored in these ZIP files as a file comment:~ --- Note for reviewers: please verify is `git archive` output deterministic?

Repository Tools
Developer tools
Specific tools for developers working on this repository.
Contains the script github-merge.py
for merging GitHub pull requests securely and signing them using GPG.
Verify-Commits
Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.py
script.
Linearize
Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.
Qos
A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Dash network. This means one can have an always-on dashd instance running, and another local dashd/dash-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.
Seeds
Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.
Build Tools and Keys
Debian
Contains files used to package dashd/dash-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile dashd/dash-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.
Gitian-descriptors
Notes on getting Gitian builds up and running using KVM.
Gitian-keys
PGP keys used for signing Dash Core Gitian release results.
MacDeploy
Scripts and notes for Mac builds.
Gitian-build
Script for running full Gitian builds.
Test and Verify Tools
TestGen
Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Dash tests.
Verify Binaries
This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from bitcoin.org.
