### Refactoring
Refactoring is a necessary part of any software project's evolution. The
following guidelines cover refactoring pull requests for the project.
Dogecoin Core is a direct fork of Bitcoin Core and therefore benefits from as
little refactoring as possible on code that is created upstream. If you see any
structural issues with upstream code, please propose these fixes for
[bitcoin/bitcoin](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) and future Dogecoin Core
releases will automatically benefit from these.
There are three categories of refactoring, code only moves, code style fixes,
code refactoring. In general refactoring pull requests should not mix these
three kinds of activity in order to make refactoring pull requests easy to
review and uncontroversial. In all cases, refactoring PRs must not change the
behaviour of code within the pull request (bugs must be preserved as is).
Project maintainers aim for a quick turnaround on refactoring pull requests, so
where possible keep them short, uncomplex and easy to verify.
When refactoring Dogecoin-specific code, please keep refactoring requests short,
low complexity and easy to verify.
