390874c722c5af0b37cb94151ffb49986eab5f7d qt: Remove menu icons (Wladimir J. van der Laan) Pull request description: Remove the icons from the application menu. Why remove? - They are inconsistently applied, some actions had icons, some newer ones don't. Good luck coming up with a sensible icon for everything - Menu icons don't seem to have a place in modern UI: for example, GNOME, MacOS have stopped showing these a long time ago (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16584#issuecomment-521195090) - Less bikeshedding opportunity about "what should the icon for this be" Removed icons: ``` /icons/quit res/icons/quit.png /icons/about res/icons/about.png /icons/about_qt res/icons/about_qt.png /icons/options res/icons/configure.png /icons/key res/icons/key.png /icons/verify res/icons/verify.png (also .svg) /icons/debugwindow res/icons/debugwindow.png /icons/open res/icons/open.png /icons/info res/icons/info.png /icons/filesave res/icons/filesave.png ``` I checked that these icons are used nowhere else. Removed from the menu not removed from the repository, because still referenced by other parts of the code: ``` /icons/lock_closed /icons/edit /icons/address-book /icons/send ``` ACKs for top commit: practicalswift: ACK 390874c722c5af0b37cb94151ffb49986eab5f7d -- diff looks correct l2a5b1: ACK 390874c722c5af0b37cb94151ffb49986eab5f7d - Bitcoin Core has a very simple application menu. As long as the menu items describe their actions clearly and unambiguously then the icons alongside the label are redundant and offer very little value, if anything at all. kallewoof: ACK 390874c722c5af0b37cb94151ffb49986eab5f7d jonasschnelli: utACK 390874c722c5af0b37cb94151ffb49986eab5f7d Tree-SHA512: dd1c52bed3bc6fb9359d5ea1b229a023dafaf813ae640775cbb433b9886bbc11a7d6a4306bac350b26d45fca9b495e4468630f2a32e185570e05f16a3ce45b47
Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree
What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/, or read the original whitepaper.
License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master
branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check
. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python, that are run automatically on the build server.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
