[6.10] Changelog #1106

Closed WhoSoup closed 3 years ago

WhoSoup commented 3 years ago

Since 6.10 is based off of 6.8 and not 6.9, I figured it would make more sense to write the changelog as if 6.9 didn't happen.

Changelog v6.10.0-rc1

Features

ChainHeadFix reworked to be multithreaded and run faster to improve startup times
P2P2 rework integrated
Entry sync ("2nd pass") rewritten to limit the number of concurrent requests made

API Changes

Raw data is now optional for the methods: admin-block, factoid-block, entrycredit-block, dblock-by-height, ecblock-by-height, fblock-by-height,ablock-by-height. To retrieve without raw data, add a parameter "noraw" of "true". Factom client support is in the current developer build.
Panics in API calls are now handled gracefully instead of shutting down the node

Bugfixes

Phantom pending coinbase no longer shows up
Several unit tests fixed
Don't display a "nil hash" error when someone buys EC

Developer Changes

The repo now uses go.mod to manage dependencies instead of glide
Golang compiler version check is removed
Automated circle test revamped to stop unnecessary checks on side branches and improve the flow (such as including go fmt and go vet checks)

Thank you. We maintain multiple Factom clients and track any Api changes, changelog good place for that.
