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 http://www.bitcoin.org/en/download. +This is an experimental Dogecoin client based on the latest Bitcoin release. License ------- Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See [COPYING](COPYING) for more information or see http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT. - -Development process -------------------- - -Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think -their feature or bug fix is ready. - -If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Bitcoin -development team members simply pulls it. - -If it is a *more complicated or potentially controversial* change, then the patch -submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on the -[mailing list](http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=bitcoin-development). - -The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing. -Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't -match the project's coding conventions (see [doc/coding.md](doc/coding.md)) or are -controversial. - -The `master` branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be -completely stable. [Tags](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tags) are created -regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin. - -Testing -------- - -Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull -requests than we can review and test. Please be patient and help out, 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` - -Every pull request is built for both Windows and Linux on a dedicated server, -and unit and sanity tests are automatically run. The binaries produced may be -used for manual QA testing — a link to them will appear in a comment on the -pull request posted by [BitcoinPullTester](https://github.com/BitcoinPullTester). See https://github.com/TheBlueMatt/test-scripts -for the build/test scripts. - -### Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing - -Large changes should have a test plan, and should be tested by somebody other -than the developer who wrote the code. -See https://github.com/bitcoin/QA/ for how to create a test plan.
