Gemfile:

  - Upgrade to Jekyll 3.x (3.0.1 tested).  This brings several new
    features I want to use, most notably *collections* which allows us
    to add blog-like collections. I've converted the `_releases` and
    `_alerts` pages into collections, although their plugins are
    maintained to handle the Download and Active Alert features.

  - Upgrade to latest Kramdown.

  - Lock Less at 2.4.0.  This prevents breaking our Less plugin.  Jekyll
    3.x provides native support for SCSS, so we may want to switch to
    that in time.

  - Lock HTML Proofer at 2.1.0.  The most recent version was taking
    forever to check our pages (I never actually got it to complete).
    I'll look into it when I get more time.

Makefile:

  - New `make clean` command.  Jekyll 3.x by default attempts to do
    incremental rebuilds.  The new `jekyll clean` command cleans up the
    metadata necessary for than so that a full build is performed, and
    this new `make clean` command is a wrapper around it so that we
    automatically do full rebuilds in the relevant cases.  Note: our
    plugins aren't fully compatible with the incremental rebuilds, but
    I'd like to fix that in the future.

  - Remove WEBrick hack to enable previewing with default URL paths (/
    instead of /index.html).

  - Filter out compliants from Rouge

README.md:

  - Now that Alerts (_alerts) are part of a collection, the file names
    are no longer parsed for dates, so instructions on adding the date
    to the YAML metadata have been added.

_alerts/*:

  - Now that alerts are part of a collection, the file names are no
    longer parsed to provide dates, so a `date:` field has been added to
    the YAML metadata.

_config.yml:

  - Some variables renamed per upgrade instructions.

  - Switched from old default syntax highlighter Pygments to new default
    Rouge.  I tried to use Rouge options to keep new output as similar
    to old output as possible to making diffing easy, but Rouge adds
    extra CSS class info.

  - Move `_alerts` and `_releases` into Jekyll 3.x "collections", which
    provide the organizational features we were using plugins to
    manange.  I haven't removed the old plugins because we still use
    some of their features (alerts.rb provides active issue and banner
    features; releases.rb provides info to Download page)

  - _layouts/* can no longer provide default global metadata; that is now
    provided in the new `defaults:` section in _config.yml.

_layouts/*:

  - Default metadata can no longer be provided in the layout files for
    collections, so I've removed it and left a message to see
    _config.yml.

_plugins/*:

  - Remove filter_for.rb. It's completely broken on Jekyll 3.x because
    of changes to Liquid which prevent adding new arguments to the
    inherited Liquid::For class. Existing uses of filter_for have been
    migrated to built-in for loops prefaced by sorts.

  - Remove remove-html-extension.rb: at it said in the comments, this
    was a temporary hack to get us to Jekyll 3.0.

_releases/*:

  - Rename all the files: prefix a v to the file name so the output html
    (e.g. v10.0.0.html) is the same as the source filename (e.g.
    v10.0.0.md).  This is necessary to migrate them to a Jekyll collection.

  - Remove %v from titles: we have to explicitly set the title, like we
    used to.  Again required for migration to collections.

_templates/events.html & en/rss/events.rss:

  - Sort events by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
    filter_for

en/alerts.html & en/rss/alerts.rss:

  - Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
    filter_for

en/bitcoin-core/index.md & en/version-history.html & en/rss/releases.rss:

  - Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
    filter_for

0.7.1	2012-10-19	Bitcoin-Qt version 0.7.1 released

Bitcoin-Qt version 0.7.1 is now available from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.7.1/

This is a bug-fix minor release.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues

Project source code is hosted at github; you can get source-only tarballs/zipballs directly from there: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tarball/v0.7.1 # .tar.gz https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/zipball/v0.7.1 # .zip

Ubuntu Linux users can use the "Personal Package Archive" (PPA) maintained by Matt Corallo to automatically keep up-to-date. Just type: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin sudo apt-get update in your terminal, then install the bitcoin-qt package: sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt

KNOWN ISSUES

Mac OSX 10.5 is no longer supported.

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).

If you were running on Linux with a version that might have been compiled with a different version of Berkeley DB (for example, if you were using an Ubuntu PPA version), then run the old version again with the -detachdb argument and shut it down; if you do not, then the new version will not be able to read the database files and will exit with an error.

Explanation of -detachdb (and the new "stop true" RPC command): The Berkeley DB database library stores data in both ".dat" and "log" files, so the database is always in a consistent state, even in case of power failure or other sudden shutdown. The format of the ".dat" files is portable between different versions of Berkeley DB, but the "log" files are not-- even minor version differences may have incompatible "log" files. The -detachdb option moves any pending changes from the "log" files to the "blkindex.dat" file for maximum compatibility, but makes shutdown much slower. Note that the "wallet.dat" file is always detached, and versions prior to 0.6.0 detached all databases at shutdown.

New features

Added a boolean argument to the RPC stop command, if true sets -detachdb to create standalone database .dat files before shutting down.
-salvagewallet command-line option, which moves any existing wallet.dat to wallet.{timestamp}.dat and then attempts to salvage public/private keys and master encryption keys (if the wallet is encrypted) into a new wallet.dat. This should only be used if your wallet becomes corrupted, and is not intended to replace regular wallet backups.
Import $DataDir/bootstrap.dat automatically, if it exists.

Dependency changes

Qt 4.8.2 for Windows builds
openssl 1.0.1c

Bug fixes

Clicking on a bitcoin: URI on Windows should now launch Bitcoin-Qt properly.
When running -testnet, use RPC port 18332 by default.
Better detection and handling of corrupt wallet.dat and blkindex.dat files. Previous versions would crash with a DB_RUNRECOVERY exception, this version detects most problems and tells you how to recover if it cannot recover itself.
Fixed an uninitialized variable bug that could cause transactions to be reported out of order.
Fixed a bug that could cause occasional crashes on exit.
Warn the user that they need to create fresh wallet backups after they encrypt their wallet.
