fanquake 5408e85145 macdeploy: disable compression in macOS gen-sdk script
Starting with Python 3.11, Pythons gzip might delegate to zlib.
Depending on the OS, i.e Ubuntu vs Fedora, the underlying zlib
implementation might differ, resulting in different output.

For now, or until a better solution exists, disable compression. This
results in the SDK increasing in size to ~157mb. Which is not
unreasonable, to regain determinism (and would be significantly worse
without the previous commit).

See: https://docs.python.org/3/library/gzip.html#gzip.compress

Verify-Commits

Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the github-merge.py script.

Linearize

Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.

Qos

UTXO Set Tools

UTXO-to-SQLite

This script converts a compact-serialized UTXO set (as generated by Bitcoin Core with dumptxoutset) to a SQLite3 database. For more details like e.g. the created table name and schema, refer to the module docstring on top of the script, which is also contained in the command's --help output.
