54c4d03578doc: Show how less noisy clang-tidy output can be achieved (TheCharlatan) Pull request description: Adds a paragraph to the clang-tidy section explaining how to de-noise its output. By default clang-tidy will print errors arrising from included headers in leveldb and other dependencies. By passing `--enable-suppress-external-warnings` flag to configure, errors arising from external dependencies are suppressed. Additional errors arrising from internal dependencies such as leveldb are suppressed by passing the `src/.bear-tidy-config` configuration file to bear. This file includes exclusionary rules for leveldb.

Bitcoin Core
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

bin/bitcoin-qt(GUI) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
Windows
