* intial docs and images to describe receiving a block and simple sync.
* add some more description text
* svg -> png
* updated simple_sync diagram to include sync_head
* rename "block head" -> "body head"
* wip - sync_on_form diagram (kill me now)
* tidy up diagram for "sync on fork"
* consolidate the chain docs
* FAQ: fix capitalization
* FAQ: friendlier answers. Move Q: crash/hangs under the Troubleshooting section
* FAQ: add missing A for block size/target mean time
* FAQ: Add link to grintest.net (see also #325)
* FAQ corrections
- link to Scripting discussion
- Quantum unsafe, says A.P.
* add doc/table_of_contents, initial attempt, based on https://lists.launchpad.net/mimblewimble/msg00024.html
And explain and link to build.md about creating folders server and wallet manually.
* add Files in this folder (doc)
* rename headlines
* docs: extract code and directory structure to code_structure.md
* Add required minimum version for Rust (Build fails on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with 1.17.0, but works fine with a manual install of 1.21.0, so I am assuming that 1.21.0 is the minimum)
* Make it clearer that grin.toml needs to be copied into the server directory
Moved the HTTP APIs away from the REST endpoint abstraction and
to simpler Hyper handlers. Re-established all routes as v1.
Changed wallet receiver port to 13415 to avoid a gap in port
numbers.
Finally, rustfmt seems to have ignored specific files arguments,
running on everything.
* "wallet init" to create the initial wallet.seed file
* cleanup and better error msgs
* add some basic wallet docs
* cleanup and make passphrase optional
* Adding switch commit to grin outputs
* logging output fix
* adding switch commitment hash to sum tree node
* added hash_with to Hashed trait, to allow for hashing to include another writeable element
* adding hash_with as method in hashed trait
* added global slog instance, changed all logging macro formats to include logger instance
* adding configuration to logging, allowing for multiple log outputs
* updates to test, changes to build docs
* rustfmt
* moving logging functions into util crate
* Integrate PMMR and its persistent backend with the Chain
* Chain can set tree roots; PMMR backend discard
* Check spent and prune for each input in new block
* Handling of forks by rewinding the state
* More PMMR tests and fixes, mostly around rewind
* Rewrite get_unspent to use the sumtrees, fix remaining compilation issues
* Adding ability to load multiple mining plugins in parallel via cuckoo miner
* updating with newest cuckoo-miner changes
* revert default config value
* update pow document with link to podcast
* adding rangeproof doc
* changes to intro doc to represent range proofs
* updating build and config doc with info on platforms and the configuration file
* added reference to introduction document
* Clarifications to SHA3 hash and addition of progress-freeness concept in Pooling Capacity
* Update to cuckoo cycle details based on John Tromp's comments.
* A couple of typos
* More clarifications based on John Tromp's feedback
* Beginning to add a POW description, and some minor changes to mining testing, addition of further debug information to mining output.
* Many additions to create first draft of POW documentation
* Fixes to difficult adjustments by adding a MINIMUM_DIFFICULTY consensus value. Otherwise never adjusted above 1 due to flooring.
* Starting to refactor test, adding http post to wallet sender
* Implemented ability to run servers on different ports (mostly for testing), and implemented ability to post http requests directly to receiving wallets
* Adding detailed instructions on running multiple servers on the same machine
* Changes to build.doc to outline server running process
* Removed unwanted debug statements
* WIP Local server testing framework evolution
* More refactoring of server pool, checked in because there's a problem
* Added server reference structure, and ability to return server references from tests cleanly
* Added simulate_parallel_mining test, which puts some artificial slowdown into test mining loops, and the difficulty can currently be watched in the log
* Removing the ServerRef structure placed in earlier and replaced with a ServerStats structure, that just returns relevant info about the Server state without exposing it to the world
* Beginning work on pool design doc
* Refining data structures; adding connect capability
* Fleshing out the connectivity paths for the tx pool
* Bringing tx pool and orphan set add logic up into parent TransactionPool
* Use output's commitment as identifier in graph structures
* Breaking a bunch of stuff to start migration to output commitment as id instead of hash
* Wrapping up updates to pool using commitment keys, dummy blockchain. Contains lots of cleanup on the internal flow.
* Beginning work on new block reconciliation
* WIP: Replacing monolithic pool cleanup with mark-and-sweep, which greatly simplifies the logic.
* Laying the groundwork for pool tests; test tx generator
* WIP: More elaborate test helpers; starting work on more elaborate block acceptance test.
* Need DummyUtxoSet to actually apply blocks now
* Using search_for_best_output to validate output status in test_basic_pool_add
* Enable modification of chain while under shared pool ownership. Cleanup pending
* WIP: Begining to untangle the TransactionPool impl from Pool and Orphans data structures
* Finishing refactoring of pool block reconciliaition; getting tests working again
* Add metrics for graph sizes; prereq to pool size throttling
* Remove redundant search_for_available_output from pool graph container
* Minimum viable block builder: return all fully rooted txs
* Tests for block building procedure
* Delegate duplicate output checking to check_duplicate_outputs
* Delegate orphan reference resolution to resolve_orphan_refs
