542c5c4 Revert "Add LXC mount entry for shm" (Joseph Bisch)

This reverts commit c2ff3f9025.

That commit broke the use of gitian on debian jessie.

c2ff3f9 Add LXC mount entry for shm (Joseph Bisch)
7f7c5f5 Detect running in LXC container using new method (Joseph Bisch)

75502b0 stop-target: use poweroff instead of halt (Nicolas Vigier)

This change gets rid of a mount failure message output by lxc when running gbuild.

It seems LXC 2.0 switched to using the systemd container interface
specification and one can no longer detect LXC containers using
/proc/1/cgroup (but I am leaving the old method, so that people using
distros with older versions of LXC can still use Gitian).

https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface/

When running Debian Jessie in KVM, using the halt command shuts down
all services but does not stop the qemu process. Using the poweroff
command avoids this problem.

73f6969 Add script to verify all merge commits are signed (Matt Corallo)

As we are already using the API to retrieve the pull request
title, also retrieve the base branch.

This makes sure that pull requests for 0.12 automatically end up in
0.12, and pull requests for master automatically end up in master,
and so on.

It is still possible to override the branch from the command line
or using the `githubmerge.branch` git option.

This makes github-merge.py the first developer tool to go
all Python 3 (for context see #7717).

The changes are straightforward as the script already was
`from __future__ import division,print_function,unicode_literals`.

However urllib2 changed name, and json will only accept unicode data not
bytes.

This retains py2 compatibility for now: not strictly necessary
as it's not used by the build system - but it was easy.

Years are set according to 'git log' history

Any attacker who managed to make an evil commit that changed something in the
contrib/verify-commits/ directory could just as easily remove the warning
and/or modify it to not display the evil commits; telling the user to check
those commits specifically misleads them into checking just those commits
rather than the script itself.

ad0a871 make-base-vm: fix init.lxc path (Nicolas Vigier)
e3c2e8d Add support for Debian guests using LXC (Joseph Bisch)

ddd3aed Switch to xenial for default suite (Joseph Bisch)

44444eb [gverify] print result with bold formatting (MarcoFalke)

It can be confusing to new users for make-base-vm to create a lucid vm
by default, so switch to xenial, which is also a LTS release, but isn't
EOL yet. Using lucid with gitian-builder is broken anyway, because
lucid has been moved to old-releases.ubuntu.com since it is EOL and
gitian-builder doesn't support old-releases.ubuntu.com.

0db6c05 Allow custom DEBOOTSTRAP_DIR, to give own template (v3) (Tigusoft Admin)

9cbb3bf doc: Remove GCC_ISSUES (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

So you can make local copy of /usr/share/debootstrap/ and
e.g. add there missing e.g. "xenial" or other script/template,
without mucking around in system directory managed by
package manager.

This file is outdated, the mentioned issue is no longer there for
newer gcc versions - for bitcoin we haven't had to specify any special
optimization flag overrides for a long time (we compile using -O2).

e4b4780 Allow build to use sudo without a password, part deux (Chris Kleeschulte)

- apropos to a discussion about merge request #36, added a flag in the descriptor and command line flag.
- adding sudo: true in the yml file plus adding a command line flag --allow-sudo will allow script user to elevate permissions with no password.

7d99dee [devtools] github-merge get toplevel dir without extra whitespace (Andrew C)
0ae5a18 devtools: show pull and commit information in github-merge (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
992efcf devtools: replace github-merge with python version (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Use 'utf-8' instead of the Python 2 default of 'ascii' to encode/decode
commit messages.
This can be removed when switching to Python 3, as 'utf-8' is the
default there.
Necessary for merging #7422 due to the ฿ in ฿tcDrak.

Fixes a bug in github merge when it runs the tests where the toplevel directory has an extra '\n' appended to the path string. Now it doesn't.

Print the number and title of the pull, as well as the commits to be
merged.

This is meant to be a direct translation of the bash script,
with the difference that it retrieves the PR title from github,
thus creating pull messages like:

    Merge #12345: Expose transaction temperature over RPC

reference_datetime: Default to git author date

Bugfix: copy-{to,from}-target: Strip trailing / from sources to avoid triggering special rsync behaviour
