577f111 Make verify-commits.sh test that merges are clean (Pieter Wuille) Pull request description: Unsure if we want this. This modifies verify-commits.sh to redo all merges along the leftmost commit branch (which includes all PR merges), and verify whether they match the merge commit's trees. The benefit is that it will detect a case where one of the maintainers merges a PR, but makes an unrelated change inside the merge commit. This on itself is not very strong, as unrelated changes can also be included in the merged branch itself - but perhaps the merge commit is not something that people are otherwise likely to look at. Fixes #8089 Tree-SHA512: 2c020f5ac3f771ac775aa726832916bb8e03a311b2745d7a9825047239bd0660d838f086f3456f2bb05cea14c1529f74436b8cdd74cc94b70e40b4617309f62c

A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-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 bitcoind/bitcoin-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile bitcoind/bitcoin-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.
Gitian-descriptors
Files used during the gitian build process. For more information about gitian, see the the Bitcoin Core documentation repository.
Gitian-keys
PGP keys used for signing Bitcoin Core Gitian release results.
