fuzz: clang-format LIMITED_WHILE

This commit is purely a code-style cleanup. It adds a space between the macro name LIMITED_WHILE and its opening parenthesis across many fuzz test files, plus a few tiny formatting fixes like removing a redundant semicolon and fixing inden…

rpc: Run type check on decodepsbt result

This is a code-quality fix for Bitcoin Core's RPC help output. It changes how the documentation generator marks parts of the response as '...' (elided) so that the internal type checker can still verify the real data types. It does not cha…

test: Set assert_debug_log timeout to 0

This commit only changes Bitcoin Core's internal functional test code. It makes the default timeout for a debug-log assertion helper stricter (0 seconds instead of 2 seconds) and updates existing tests to explicitly pass a 2-second timeout…

refactor: Enforce readability-avoid-const-params-in-decls

This commit is a pure code-style cleanup. It removes unnecessary 'const' keywords from function parameter declarations in header files across the Bitcoin Core codebase and adds a clang-tidy rule to prevent them from being reintroduced. The…

scripted-diff: Remove priority_level from BENCHMARK macro

This commit is a cleanup change to Bitcoin Core's internal benchmark test code. It removes an unused 'priority level' argument from the BENCHMARK macro and from all benchmark definitions. The change does not affect the live Bitcoin network…

scripted-diff: [doc] Unify stale copyright headers

This commit is a bulk update of copyright notice years in source-code comments. It changes phrases like '2012-2022 The Bitcoin Core developers' to '2012-present The Bitcoin Core developers' across 988 files. There are no changes to program…

scripted-diff: Bump copyright headers after encoding changes

This commit only updates copyright years in file headers from a fixed range (for example '2018-2022') to 'year-present'. It makes no changes to program logic, network behavior, or security-sensitive code. There is no security relevance.

contrib: Remove confusing and redundant encoding from IO

This commit removes explicit 'UTF-8' encoding declarations from dozens of helper and test scripts in the Bitcoin Core repository. In Python 3, removing the encoding argument makes file operations fall back to the system's default locale en…

refactor: Return uint64_t from GetSerializeSize

This is a small defensive code change in Bitcoin Core that changes an internal size-measuring helper from using the system's native size type (size_t) to always using a 64-bit unsigned integer (uint64_t). On 64-bit computers nothing effect…

refactor: Use uint64_t over size_t for serialized-size values

This is a code cleanup change that swaps the variable type `size_t` for `uint64_t` in a handful of places that store serialized data sizes. On 64-bit computers the two types are the same size, so nothing changes. On 32-bit computers, `uint…
