Add additional variables to the release note files to allow setting the
version number and date. The version number is required, and can be
used to automatically set the release notes title. The date is optional
and can be set hours/days after the release.
Additionally, a Makefile test is added that checks whether the download
files exist on the Bitcoin.org server. This can help prevent creating a
broken Download page.
* Set variables for all previous releases
* Document variables in README.md
* Update code and templates to use variables
* Add the Download page links to the "dl" CSS class. Also add newlines
to make the HTML a bit easier to parse using sed
* Add a new Liquid plugin to print warnings. This is used to print a
non-error warning if any release is created without the optional date
* Set filenames once in the download page
* Edit download page for new or updated files
* Add link to the source code, GitHub and torrent download
* Replace long sync instructions by short instructions to run a full node on the download page
Commit originated by Saïvann Carignan and updated by Dave Harding.
This suggests specific tasks for new volunteers and links directly to
relevant pages or README sections.
We also advise submitters of new wallets to read the requirements list.
New Makefile lets testers build the static HTML files and then run a few
automated tests to catch problems like missing files and links. The
Makefile is not required; the site can still be built using just Jekyll.
This commit also fixes several image-related errors reported by `make
test` by adding the missing PNG images.
* update to modern, supported Ruby 2.0 version
* update gems to current versions using Bundler

* ignore bundled dependencies
* some README mods as per @harding + @saivann
